On the Facebook site, at the top-right corner, click the down-arrow icon.
From the menu that opens after clicking the down-arrow icon, select “Settings & Privacy.”
From the expanded “Settings & Privacy” menu, select “News Feed Preferences.”
You’ll see a “News Feed Preferences” window. At the bottom of this window, click the “Reaction Preferences” option.
Facebook will open a “Reaction Preferences” window.
In this window, to hide like counts for posts from other users, toggle on the “On Posts from Others” option. To hide like counts for your own posts, enable the “On Your Posts” option.
Facebook will immediately hide the specified like counts in your account. Close the “Reaction Preferences” window by clicking “X” at the top-right corner of the window.
When you browse your Facebook news feed, the posts without a like count will look something like this:
And that’s how you save yourself from feeling manipulated by like counts on Facebook!
If you ever need to re-enable the like counts, open the same “Reaction Preferences” window. In the window, toggle off both “On Posts from Others” and “On Your Posts” options.
Facebook will start showing the like counts in your account.
