LinkedIn users will soon be able to use a react option to respond to humorous content, as the new ‘Funny’ reaction is about to be released on the platform. The reaction appears in the form of a blue colored laughing emoji in a preview shared by app researcher Nima Owji.
This update has been long awaited as quite a lot of users have
been requesting for it. LinkedIn’s Chief Product Officer Tomer Cohen revealed
that a laughing emoji reaction was among the top requests. “We hear you loud
& clear and we agree. Humor is indeed a serious business,” he said.
Keep an eye out for the new emoji, LinkedIn users! You shall
spot the update on LinkedIn’s Help page for Reactions before it is officially released.
