Facebook’s revamped Reaction buttons are due to launch soon

Facebook’s changes to their Like system are due to hit the social network soon. These new “Reactions” were teased back in October, but now we can expect an official rollout to users over the next few weeks.

These new reactions cover everything from your normal likes and loves that we’re used to seeing on social media, but there are also reactions for laughter, shock, grief, and a few others. We still won’t get a dislike button because of how easily that would turn into a negative experience for users, but the wide range of emotions is a significant improvement over the current one-dimensional like. After all, natural disasters and personal tragedies are hardly things that any of us like, despite what status updates on Facebook say.

The six new emotions available for users will help Facebook figure out what gets the most reactions out of users, and should hopefully help to drive more interaction on the site. We’ll find out in a few weeks.
