Phoenix 17,395 Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 So a Facebook friend just wrote a 1,000-word status about how her boyfriend dumped her, she's failing all her classes and she just found out that McDonald's all-day breakfast would have a limited menu. She's obviously depressed, distressed and looking for some sympathy. Your only option to show support, besides a sad face emoji?The "like" button. Now you look like a jackass. Congrats, you just lost a Facebook friend!Seriously, Facebook has been plagued with this problem for years. How do you show sympathy or anger without actually engaging anyone on the social media site? The "like" button has been the usual go-to, but it's not always appropriate. Your coworker's grandmother just passed away and you're clicking a button that means "I like this status!" Might as well give them a thumbs-up in the break room at work when they cry to you about how they'll miss their nana. Jerk.READ: Now there's an app that can track who unfriends you on FacebookBut that will change very soon, according to Mark Zuckerberg. Facebook's head honcho announced today during a Q&A at Facebook's headquarters that they are currently working on a "dislike" button. React and rejoice, everyone!"I think people have asked about the dislike button for many years. Today is a special day because today is the day I can say we're working on it and shipping it," Zuckerberg said You know what we are shipping? Us and the Facebook "dislike" button. Now we finally have a way to say, "Mom! Stop posting ads to online dating sites to our Facebook page! We don't like it!"Zuckerberg revealed that the reason behind the delay in creating a "dislike" button was because he was worried it would become reddit-style down-voting situation.http://uk.eonline.com/news/696079/facebook-is-finally-getting-a-dislike-button-so-now-you-don-t-have-to-like-terrible-statuses 💎 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
