We do have a great substitute for the like button which is barnstars and other awards. These are the ones I see frequently used to show appreciation for specific edits. They could read something on the lines of: "Here I award you the Humor Barnstar for your great sense of humor shown in this edit [insert diff here]." Otherwise I see simple thank you's on talk pages.
A like button does make more sense on Commons. But then we have our own processes there: Featured Pictures/sounds/videos, Valued Pictures and Quality Images. Those are more useful than liking, and I think would also be more appreciated by the creators. Not to mention that having an image included in an article is rewarding by itself.
