Facebook Finally Introduces A "Dislike" Button
But it’s not where you’d expect.
Facebook is finally introducing a “dislike” button, but it’s not where you’d probably want it to be. The social network is introducing emoji attachments to Messenger chats, where users will be able to assign an emoji to a specific message — helpful in group chats.
When you hover over a message, you’ll be given the option to attach a reaction, which includes the thumbs down emoji. While the new feature is not available to everyone yet, it will be rolling out to all users if popular. Facebook confirmed the feature to TechCrunch, saying, “We’re always testing ways to make Messenger more fun and engaging. This is a small test where we enable people to share an emoji that best represents their feelings on a message.”
