Twitter Heart 2015: Social Media Platform Changes Favorite Button From Star To A Heart & People Are Freaking Out [PHOTO, POLL]
Twitter made a seemingly small change to its site in the last few days, but it's one that has several people who use the social media platform freaking out.
Before, when someone wanted to favorite a Tweet, they would hit a golden star icon. However, that has now been changed to a bright red heart-and it isn't something too any people have been expressing happy thoughts about.
A lot of people expressed sadness on Twitter over the fact that the star was no more:

However, others did decide to get over their sorrow and crack a few jokes about the whole thing:
