Elon Musk's X Tests 'Dislike' Button for Downvoting Replies
New feature aims to improve engagement by allowing users to downvote replies, with a heartbroken icon indicating dislikes.
- The 'dislike' button is being tested on the iOS version of X (formerly Twitter).
- Initial reports and code references suggest the button will appear as a heartbroken icon.
- The feature, first tested in 2021, is currently limited to downvoting replies, not posts.
- Users have expressed mixed reactions, with some concerned it could increase toxicity on the platform.
- The change follows other recent updates, including hiding 'likes' from public view.
