Here's how to get the rainbow flag reaction on Facebook to celebrate Pride month

Posted

There's a new reaction appearing on Facebook to recognize Pride month events around the world. 

The button appears when you over over the Like button on a post. It's a small rainbow flag to "celebrate love and diversity" during June, which is traditionally when Pride events take place. It is also showing up in remembrance of the victims of the Pulse shooting one-year anniversary on Monday, June 12, 2017.
