Facebook adding an emoji feature similar to 'likes'
  • 9 years ago
Give the people what they want: tiny cartoon faces instead of actual words.
Facebook users in Spain and Ireland will reportedly be able to test versions of the social media website's "reactions" emojis as early as Friday.
Facebook has long had "stickers" for its messenger function, but perhaps it found people just want faces - not faces on pizza slices and ketchup bottles.
The company has expressed interest in moving beyond the "like" button for a while now.
Last month co-founder Mark Zuckerberg said Facebook was working on a "dislike" button, not for negativity but for users to show empathy.
