FAQs
Can I unlike a post that I previously liked?
Yes. Click the like button again on the post to remove your like, or go to the liked post in the activity log and select the option to unlike it.
Why can’t I see who has liked my Facebook posts?
If the number of likes doesn’t match the number of users shown, it means one of them has blocked you, you blocked them, or they have deactivated their profile. Can others see posts I liked on Facebook? This was possible in the past. However, due to Facebook‘s supposed aim of “improving user privacy” (with a hint of sarcasm), it is no longer an option for others to see your liked posts. The only exception is when a post you liked also appears on someone else‘s feed organically.
