  Include sharing buttons for your readers to share your content across various social networks and services. Video Tutorial Display Sharing Buttons To access the Sharing Buttons settings: Visit your site’s dashboard. Navigate to Tools → Marketing. Click on the Sharing Buttons tab: Here, you can show or hide sharing buttons on different types of content throughout

  
  then, yes, people need a WordPress.com account to like a post.

  I’ve checked your posts, and I only spotted likes on this post: https://unholiestwatches.wordpress.com/2023/09/07/one-way-or-the-other-maybe-a-third-option-exists/, but they all come from WordPress.com accounts.

  Could you share the post where someone liked a post without an account?

  Thanks!
