Thread Vote System

I hope to see this modification in-build to the next Xenforo releases. IPB3 vote system was very good and useful.

Nothing's stopping you from changing your reactions to just Upvote/Like and Downvote/Dislike. Even IPS ditched the up/down voting in favor of reactions because they're far more versatile.

If you mean the thread only (first post) that is a Suggestion type, like this one, but downvotes are disabled on XF.
