Facebook will finally get a button that lets you quickly express something beyond a “like.”  On Tuesday founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg said that people have been asking for a “dislike” button on the social media site for years.

While speaking at an event at Facebook’s Menlo Park, California, headquarters that was streamed live online, Zuckerberg acknowledged that “like” isn’t always appropriate for some posts.  For example liking posts about a tragic news event may seem inappropriate to some, when people might want to express empathy.

However Zuckerberg said the company, has veered away from making a “dislike” button, which could be used to vote down other people’s posts. Zuckerberg said the new button is ready to be tested soon and could be rolled out broadly depending on how it does.
