Yes I agree. I use the word quite a lot in the context of, I love that flower or I love the colour. Does that detract from expressing the word love for a person I wonder?
Can't speak for anyone else but I don't though your post made me look how many posts I've made. I've only been here a year so a babe in arms but always had a lot to say for myself. I was a nightmare child.
I don't count them. Why would I? I don't rate anyone's post. Why would I? I'm grateful to anyone who takes the time to reply to me and always try to answer any comments or suggestions verbally. I use the like thing if I agree with something but have nothing to add.
Indeed @B3. The number of posts someone has is completely irrelevant, and as for rating them. Why on earth would anyone do that? The quality of advice is the important factor for most rational people. Unfortunately, for some new posters, it can be hard to sort the wheat from the chaff when we get WUMs, or similar, posting...
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....

The singular possessive apostrophe shows that 'hi' has been removed. The dog's bowl - the dog his bowl. Not sure about the plural , though - theirs? Maybe it's just that the dogs's bowls is too awkward to say🤔
The dogs' bowls - multiple bowls belonging to multiple dogs. You
wouldn't say "dogses" (unless you're Gollum, maybe) so you don't write the
second s after the apostrophe.
The dogs' bowl - one bowl shared by more than one dog (like the ones you sometimes see outside shops etc).
The dog's bowls - one for food and one for water?
Doncaster, South Yorkshire. Soil type: sandy, well-drained
But 1½ is plural You usually say one and a half minutes not one and a half minute. If you use a number as an part of an adjective, you use a hyphen as in 4-minute mile.

Two minutes’ time
But where do you fancy putting the apostrophe if it’s one and a half minutes?
