I hope this is the right section to post this.

Anyone struggle to hit the forum's thumbs-down reaction? It always seems to want to put a thumbs up instead. I end up having to remove the thumbs up and try a few times to get the thumbs down to activate.

On mobile or desktop?
 
so I tested this on mobile, and if it's a quick tap, it'll do like. you have to hold for a second for the selection to pop up.

Not sure what mobile device or browser you are using that might change behavior.

OK, thank you. Will try that. 👍🏻

It's the universe telling you to be more positive.

Ive noticed the reaction button behaves differently since the forum upgrade. I get what the op is saying.

I usually have hit it twice to pick another reaction apart from like.

Exactly. I should've specific that like @I7guy did. It's ANY reaction other than Like that seems to be a pain to tap. I tried quick tapping, long tapping, and everything in between and nothing seemed to help.
 
I am also struggling... all the thumbs up I gave in this thread are supposed to be thumbs down FYI. 😉

Perhaps I'm recalling it incorrectly, but I thought in the past (Safari/macOS) I had to click Like and then select the emoji I wanted. Now I have to hover over the Like and then I can select from a popup. Muscle memory is such that I'm always clicking instead of hovering even if I want something besides Like. Or I'm getting old. 🙂
