Though long demanded by Facebook users as alternative to the "like," the
dislike button has been shot down again and again by Facebook.
Liking comments and status updates on Facebook has been a
long running theme of the social network, but you’ve never been able to
demonstrate your disdain with a "dislike" until now. While Facebook
isn’t introducing a full dislike button, the Messenger part of the
service is getting a giant thumbs-down sticker as part of a free pack
released this week. Stickers were originally introduced in April, but a
recent hackathon has resulted in a “Likes” sticker pack that includes a
sore thumb, fiery thumb, poke, and lots more.
The new sticker pack is available from the Sticker Store,
which is accessible via the smiley face within a Facebook Messenger chat
session on the web or mobile apps. While it won’t bring the highly
requested dislike button to comments and status updates, you’ll be able
to send your friends as many sore thumbs and thumbs-down stickers as you
want to express any dissatisfaction over that Christmas sweater they're wearing this holiday.
To get the stickers:
1. Go to the chat feature while browsing Facebook on the web or mobile.2. Click the smiley logo in the bottom right of a chat window.
3. From there, click the shopping cart to open the "Sticker Store."
4. In the "Sticker Store," download the "Likes" pack of stickers.
5. Dislike away!
