Can confirm in US (+Ireland and other country when fb were testing reactions out) but not everywhere just yet, Non US has the new 'like' icon but no others, only a matter of time before it'll change too

see screenshots



Interested to hear others thoughts and opinions on this and how they think it'll change how they currently do things on fb

I'm a little concerned about the negative emotions (think its anger) being an issue with blackhat posts etc

It looks ridiculous. That's just going to cause weird drama between people on facebook, as if there isn't enough already.
