    Unliking a comment doesn't always notify the person who posted it.

    The app logged her unliking dozens of posts within a single minute.

    Note

    This -ing form belongs only to the verb unlike, never to the adjective meaning "dissimilar," so unliking always names an action, not a comparison. The verb carries two meanings: simply to dislike, and to cancel a "like" on a post, stretched more broadly to withdrawing support or enjoyment. As a gerund it takes a direct object: unliking a comment, unliking a brand.
