The answer to “Thumbs-up response on social media” in LinkedIn Crossclimb on Thursday, August 13, 2026 is LIKE — a 4-letter word, and rung 1 of that day's ladder. Crossclimb is a word ladder, so this isn't just a trivia answer: LIKE has to fit both the clue and the one-letter chain running through the puzzle. Below you'll find why it fits, exactly where it sits in the ladder, and links to the day's other clues if more than one rung is giving you trouble.
“Thumbs-up response on social media” answer
The Crossclimb answer for “Thumbs-up response on social media” (Thursday, August 13, 2026) is:
LIKE
You can also reveal it one letter at a time with the tiles above if you'd rather keep some of the challenge.
Why the answer is LIKE
From LIFE you change the third letter of LIFE from F to K to reach LIKE, then change the second letter of LIKE from I to A to get LAKE.
How LIKE fits the ladder
Crossclimb stacks 7 words where each one changes a single letter from the word above it. Here's the full ladder for August 13, 2026, with “Thumbs-up response on social media” highlighted:
| Rung | Word | Clue |
|---|---|---|
| Top word | LIFE | (unlocks last — fits the letters above the ladder) |
| Clue rung | LIKE ← this clue | Thumbs-up response on social media |
| Clue rung | LAKE | A large body of water surrounded by land |
| Clue rung | SAKE | Japanese rice wine |
| Clue rung | SAME | “In the ___ boat” (sharing a difficult situation) |
| Clue rung | TAME | Domesticated, like a household pet |
| Bottom word | TIME | (unlocks last — fits the letters below the ladder) |
LIKE sits at rung 1: from LIFE you change the third letter of LIFE from F to K to reach LIKE, then change the second letter of LIKE from I to A to get LAKE. Each neighbouring rung is exactly one letter away, which is how you can derive LIKE even if the clue alone stumps you — solve a neighbour and the single-letter rule points straight here.
