Facebook question

[Laura PourMeADrink]

can you see who liked a post (not your own) without actually liking the post yourself?

1. Hover your mouse over the like button (or any of the other reaction buttons)

to see a list of people who clicked like.

6. Guess that's what I did, because I could see who liked - I guess I just didn't know

if I was added to the people who liked.

I find it best when the world is crashing around me to worry about very trivial things

2. Do you mean who rec'd it?

Yes....just tap on the number box above the actual yellow rec box.....that will bring up all the "names" of all that have recommended a post.....hope that helps!

4. That's DU. He/she is asking about Facebook.

3. As aforementioned,

Typically you can hover over the reactions to see who liked the post, however I'm not sure if this works for posts by people you are not friends with on fb.

5. ya, you might be right - I probably am not a friend.

7. You should still see the list

and if over a certain number it's just a link to all the rest. You can click on that and see all of them. I see 138 reactions to a post on my timeline and I'm not friends with about 134 of them - but I am friends with the original poster.

Now I suppose it's possible one could be blocked by another person which is a level beyond just not being friends but I'm not sure how that works as everybody likes me.

You should be able to see all your friends posts. You should be able to see non-friends posts if they are posted publicly. And if you can see the post, you can see who liked it.

8. If I tag my dad in a post, I will get a bunch of likes from his friends

He died last year, so I post pictures of him from time to time. All sorts of people show up to like the pic!
