If you accidentally like and unlike someone’s post on Facebook, chances are they won’t know you’ve done so. Even if they go to their Facebook notifications, they won’t be able to see that you’ve liked their posts because the notification gets deleted as soon as you unlike it.

If they already had Facebook open when you “Liked” the post, they’ll see the notification that you “liked” it when they view their notifications even if you have already “unliked” it before they click to view their notifications.

While Facebook does notify you when you receive a reaction on a post or comment, there is no notification for a reaction being deleted. So if you manage to get lost in the sea of reactions, the person may never tell that you deleted your reaction. That being said, Facebook does let you view who reacted to your post.
