Teams needs a down vote or thumbs down button.
No down vote or thumbs down button in messages/group chat.

Yes, I agree that we really need a thumbs down as well.

For formal voting Agree / Disagree / Abstain button would be utmost helpful.

We have been using teams in our software development team. Normally people post link to code reviews and once they have some eyes on them they get the thumbs up in teams. Today we had our first bad review with some bad code, I could not give it a thumbs down to indicate there was a problem with it, but someone before me had already given the thumbs up. Needs more.

Essential for taking ad hoc polls when a full-fledged poll is not called for. We need this all the time for working sessions.

To negate other's approval, we need thumbs down. I had to use angry option which didn't go well 😒

Two of the organisations I work with are about to move to Zoom because there's still no agree/disagree button which you can see the numbers of for informal decisions. (Both Zoom and Blackboard Collaborate have this function.) I want to stay with teams because of the integration but I am losing the argument because of the lack of this basic meeting feature.

I like to do a quick vote to see if students agree or disagree on a topic. Right now, students can use the thumbs up if they agree, but then to show they disagree they either have to use a sad face or the angry face, both of which feel much more emotionally intense when seen on the screen in the chat as a way to simply express disagreement. Thanks!

Having a 'thumbs down' option for students would make it so much easier to check on understanding, show agreement/disagreement, and voting yes/no on something. Emojis are not an appropriate way to do any of that.

We need this for simple voting. Up for yes, down for no.
After using Teams for several YEARS, today I learned through embarrassment that there is no thumbs down emoji. I asked my entire team to vote on a comment I made, yes or no. All I got was the laugh emoji, and I had to ask them why.

My team constantly disagrees with me and I would like a simple solution for them to voice their opinions.

You know what, thumbsup is the only reaction we use in our team.
Instead of people saying "ok", "I understand" "done", "yes" or other similar positive things. The exact meaning is derived from the context. Therefor a "thumbsdown reaction to represent all sorts of negative reactions is needed.
The other 5 reactions? We don't use them, they are pretty much useless as reactions. Most of the time we send emojis instead. You are welcome to replace any of those five reactions with a thumbsdown.
