Solved Vote on new reactions

[adam]

I think the default Facebook-esque reactions aren’t a very good fit for our community. There’s a poll above where I’d love you to vote for the reactions you would like to see available. Feel free to suggest your own as well!

Good idea. I think there should be at least 1 "negative" one for say reacting to a sad post, but hopefully people won't use it to mean "I don't like this" (best not to say anything then)

I would like to also add 🚀👨‍💻

But I really love the ability to use multiple reactions in GitHub. Would this be possible?

And just as a super crazy idea: if we use regular emojis. How about allow to react with every emoji via a small text-input?

I like the idea of being able to do multiple different reactions.

You could do GitHub's way and add only a select few emojis. Or you could do Discord's (or Slack) way and allow pretty much anything. The community would auto-regulate anyways, and some crazy things might happen that'd make this community unique. 😉

I vote for the Slack way! 🙏💙😅

Good stuff… just need the 🔥 now.

I feel that we should get a 👎 as well.

I feel that we should get a 👎 as well.

I would only agree if it's part of the "all emojis as reaction" idea. Otherwise it's an too easy to use and demotivating reaction. Primary because there's so much interpretation.

 

[fbnlsr]

You're right. Especially since WebWide is aimed at being an inclusive (I read that as "positive-minded") platform.

Bad content will be either discussed or ignored.

New reactions all in. 🤗
