How to Hide (or Show) Like Counts on Facebook – How-To Geek

You can hide like counts on Facebook posts and comments in two ways:

  • On your profile:
    1. Go to your Facebook profile.
    2. Click on the Settings tab.
    3. Click on Privacy.
    4. Click on Public posts.
    5. Under Likes and reactions, select Only me.
  • On individual posts:
    1. Go to the post that you want to hide the like counts for.
    2. Click on the three dots icon in the top right corner of the post.
    3. Select Hide like counts.

If you hide like counts on your profile, then no one will be able to see how many likes your posts have. However, people will still be able to see who has liked your posts.

If you hide like counts on individual posts, then only you will be able to see how many likes the post has. Other people will only see the number of likes when they hover over the like button.

Here are some additional tips for hiding like counts on Facebook:

  • You can also hide like counts for comments on your posts. To do this, follow the same steps as above, but select Comments under Likes and reactions.
  • If you change your mind and want to show like counts again, you can follow the same steps and select Public or Friends under Likes and reactions.
  • Hiding like counts can be a good way to reduce social media anxiety and focus on the content of posts instead of the number of likes they receive.
