Instagram tests a ‘dislike’ button for comments

After Users Noticed A new button In order to reduce or dislike comments on Instagram, the company has confirmed that it is checking a way to signal users that they either do not like comments or do not think it is relevant.

The feature will appear all over both feed post and reel.

Instagram chief Adam Mosesi says a Thread post The company that won’t show any dislike count, and nobody knows you to dislike any comments. He also added that, finally, the dislikes will calculate the ranking comment.

“Some of you have found that we are examining a new button next to the comments on Instagram – it gives people a personal way that they don’t feel good about that special comment. I want to be clean: This is a test, no dislike count, or no one will know if you tap the button. Finally, we can integrate this signal in the comment rankings to move the dislike comments to the bottom. Our hope is that it can help make the comments on Instagram more friendly, “said Moses.

Apple Alessandro Paluji posted about Instagram last month Being tested in such a featureAnd now the company has made it official.

Meta said that this test should contribute to improve the quality of the comment department.

“We are working on people’s experience on Instagram and how they see on the app better to help people better control,” a company spokesman said. “We are examining a new button next to each comment on a reel or feed post to signal personally. We’re examining it with a very small group to start it. Later, we can also test these comments down to the comment section to help create better experiences, “they added.

Reddit now has a downvote process for years and the platform uses it to pick a variety of comments based on the upvots and downvote. When the meta is moving in the same direction, we still don’t know that it will weight as much as these votes like Reddit.
