The engineering team confirmed the purple gratitude flower is now a permanent reaction option on the platform. We have successfully secured the feature for all users. I will be monitoring the rollout over the coming week to ensure stability.

Missing gratitude yet? Missing showing your thankfulness?

The purple gratitude flower is gone again. Facebook created it to show gratitude to our mothers on their day, which makes sense but...

Why is expressing gratitude only an option for one week in the year?

Gratitude, being thankful, is something that should be shown and shared consistently not temporarily.

Updates

May 23, 2017

I am currently drafting a formal letter to the platform's community management team to request a permanent expansion of the reaction interface. We are also evaluating the feedback submitted via the group to refine our proposal for a year-round gratitude feature. Further updates will follow once I receive a response from their regional communications office.

The Purple Gratitude Flower is the ONLY emoji I care to use. Gratitude should be an everyday thing, and not just reserve for a short time of the year.

Please, out of all of the icons, the thankful one (Purple Flower) is awesome, it does not just express one's feeling, but it let's others feel appreciated! Thank you *

I think the gratitude flower belongs on the pallet of replies. I've used it more than any of the others since it was opened again. Please keep the flower of gratitude in the response repertoire.

Please save the Gratitude Flower. The world needs to express gratitude more often. And as so many people are on Facebook all the time, I would be so *grateful* if the flower remained for us to continue using! ♥
