Facebook is adding a new way to interact with posts, on top of the already existing like button they're adding several emoticons that you can use instead of it.

I kind of like this, makes it a bit more interesting what do you think?
 
 

Facebook says it's bringing in several emoticons you'll be able to use instead soon. (Thumb fans, don't despair, that's not going anywhere).

The new "reactions" will let users express love, laughter, happiness, shock, sadness and anger.

It works by hovering or long-pressing the Like button and selecting the relevant emoji that you want to put in your message.

The status will then count how many likes, loves, angers, etc. you've had.

I won't be happy until I can downvote people's lives :)

If you can read this you're using the wrong theme.  You can change it at the bottom.

Kinda cool, although my Facebook account probably consists of tumbleweed nowadays. I quit it years ago and vowed never to go there again. Literally a social network full of idiots. I despise it. I try and stay away from social media as a whole, except YouTube and Twitch. I use Twitter time to time though, but only follow osu! players and close friends.

Still doesn't let me show my distaste for most posts by the click of a button. Still sucks. Not that I use Facebook anyway :D

Home is where the heart my desktop is.
