your right it does not mean the same as when a dog licks you. most rabbits will lick you for the salt on your skin if the don’t have a salt block. or they are trying to groom you or you have food or perfume on you had that they like. if your rabbit doesn’t have a salt block i would buy him one.

i tink it means he likes you

he could just be being effectionate or hes just licking the salt of your hands

The rabbit is licking the salt from your sweat off your hands. Lots of small pets will do this. Check with a pet store to find out if there are salt supplements you can give the rabbit.

The rabbit is after the salt on your palms. Give him/her a mineral block, she needs that in her diet. The rabbit will probably still lick your hand though, it’s a friendly gesture.

It is not a good thing. You need to understand rabbits do not “lick” people. He might be dehydrated, thinking that your skin might have water. If he is not drinking from his rabbit water bottle, I suggest that you get his some lettuce, carrots or any other veggies high in water content. You might want to get him checked out.

It means he likes you. Rabbits will lick each other when they groom each other and that is a sign of affection. You can feel very honored that your bunny loves and trusts you enough to groom you!
Here’s a fun site about bunnies –
The Language of Lagomorphs:
Very amusing and good insight into why your bunny does what he does

p.s. If he nips you, it just means he found something that needed more grooming. He isn’t trying to hurt you and if you yelp, he’ll stop.

He is probably in need of a little salt.
He smells it on your hands in your sweat.
Animal instincts are better than ours, and they tend to know what they need.
Just like a dog eats grass every now and then.
