Facebook shares a secret behind their LIKE button

It has been revealed that Facebooks news feed algorithm takes into consideration any reaction that you add to a Like. So if you click "Like" and then select "Happy", Facebook then looks at that extra step to select Happy as a signal that you are very interested in this content.

All the reactions that you can select carry the same influence in within the Facebook News Feed algorithm and prioritizes what you select over just a straight Like. So next time you add a reaction to a Facebook Like remember you are telling Facebook you really like this content, or hate it and your pushing more of the same to your feed.
