I find myself using them on pretty much every platform that has them: matrix, masto, discord, etc.
These would be completely separate from votes, and have no affect on sorting.
What do you think the positives and negatives would be of having them?

I do love them, but it’d be hard for them to not get real visually noisy. Also they’d need to be moddable (ex: racists using monkey emojis to harass). Also would they be anonymous the way vote counts are? I think they’re a really fun feature but need careful thought before UI incorporation. (ooh, maybe they’d make sense to keep pretty small and have in a similar position to where Reddit puts comment gilding?)
For the UI, I was thinking they’d look similar to discord reactions, small, grouped, and at the bottom:
I was originally thinking anonymous, but I never thought of ppl using them for nefarious purposes…
You haven’t been around people long enough =P
