Dislike is one feature which is desired by many on Facebook. New changes are coming from Facebook to Messenger app that will allow users to react to the messages they receive. Facebook has officially confirmed to TechCrunch that it is experiencing emojis who are reacting to Messenger.
Facebook is testing a feature that will allow users to use one of seven possible reactions. One of them is dislike, i.e. a thumb pointing down, which could be interpreted as dislike. This specific reaction is not available for his posts News Feed, but it is a feature that many users have requested in the past.
"We're trying to find ways to make Messenger more fun and engaging. "This is a small test that will allow users to share emoji that best represent their emotions in a message," said a Facebook employee.
Emojis with reactions are similar to those found in regular Facebook posts, except that they will be available in the Messenger app. The emojis will appear next to the message, signaling the user's response to a response.
Facebook seems to be planning to bring emojis with reactions to all Messenger users, but the time of their official release is not yet known.
Let us mention that the biggest social network said recently that it develops news feeds based on user reactions. So if users react with the "love" emoji to a certain post, Facebook's algorithm will show it first in line.
