| Facebook users have been asking the company for a “dislike” option for years, and it seems the company has granted their request — sort of. While most people would expect to see the long-awaited thumbs down icon alongside the other post Reactions — like, love, haha, wow, sad, and angry — instead, the option is in Facebook Messenger.
According to TechCrunch, Facebook is testing out the Messenger Reactions. This means that only some users can see the Reactions, but if it proves popular, the feature could roll out to everyone. The way it works is similar to the feature in other apps like Slack and iMessage and allows users to hover over a message and pick a reaction to it. The reactions include both a thumbs up and a thumbs down, which Facebook told TechCrunch they see more like a “yes and no” reaction, rather than a “like and dislike.” |
