Trouble selecting "Like" reaction

[clm65]

Seems that more often than not, when I try to "like" a post, I end up with the "love" or "haha" instead. And it is extremely difficult to change it because the pop-up bar with the different reaction options wants to disappear too quick. I'm sure some people think I'm an idiot because I laughed at their serious and well written posts that I tried unsuccessfully to like.

EDIT: now it seems to be working just fine. Not sure what was going on, but it has happened to me on two different computers.

if you click on like once it should simply like the post, if you hover your mouse over it it'll bring up the other options.

Yeah, I think I must be too slow to click sometimes, and I end up clicking the love or haha options. Then when I try to replace it with a like, the banner disappears before I can move the cursor over to the like option.

It's funny, after I made my original post, I tried it again. The banner with the 5 options popped up, and I was able to move the cursor over all of the options without it disappearing. Tried it again a few minutes later, and it was giving me grief again. One thing I noticed is that when it is working properly, the banner displays above the rectangular "like" button (doesn't block the rectangular button). But when it is not working properly, the banner sits right on top of the rectangular button (blocks it). Am I the only one with this problem?

At home it is Firefox. Not sure about work....

Here are some screen shots of what the banner looks like when everything is working right, and then when the issue is present.

Good:

Bad:

As you can see in the bottom pic, the banner is over the "like" rectangular button. As soon as I try to move my cursor to the left or right, the banner disappears, but I am no longer over the rectangular button, so I can't select "Like". This isn't a huge issue, so I don't want anyone to spend a lot of time trying to resolve an issue that may only affect me. It just gets frustrating when it appears I am laughing at someone's good post.
