What 10 emoji should we use as a reaction, and which should be the defalt
- like, +1
- Love it
- funny, laughing with you
- oh crud, What?!, WOW, suprise, disbelief, shock
- watching this, following along, Whoa, disbelief
- 100%, I agree!
- congrats!
- “The duck emoji on the V1 Engineering forum represents a show of support, encouragement, or a “nice work” acknowledgment.”
- Ahh crud, bummer
- Good luck!
I am voting for thumbs up to be the default.

I think these choices will be popular:
Swap heart and thumbs up so thumbs up is default.
Replace the with or . I prefer 100.
Less popular might be:
I would also replace with .
I think of as my staring wide eyed, like “Whoa!”.
I also like . But it just means another “Whoa!” Response.

Why? We are hearting stuff more, don’t we? New build, things you’ve made… I want hearts, not thumbs…
You’re hearting more and you voted for heart? Good for you!
I want thumbs up!

interesting, I always hit this to let people know saw the post, or I am interested in what they are doing.
I made some trial changes, how is it?
Might be able to add more, keep the requests coming.
I think we should stay away from negative stuff like thumbs down. If you don’t like a post don’t use a reaction emoji?
If you don’t like a post, keep scrolling and move on, or explain why in words if necessary lol
Definitely too easy for negative emojis to be misconstrued.
As you can tell… most of these can have multiple interpretations…
I think what I’m normally missing is a way to point out that I agree with something that’s more than just a Like/+1. The can be read as just “cool, I like it” rather than “This is correct”
It’s kinda similar to the Voting system Idea like we talked about in that other forum.
Just to me doesn’t convey to another reader that “I think this answer is the correct answer, you should listen to this guy”
The or , either one I think is fine, although I think if we are limited to this emoji set, the is better. That hand is not as easy to read to me as

I want hearts
Yeah, feels like the world will be a better place if hearting is easier, and the default behavior.

What does mean? Solid open affordable engineering… e.g. “We actually build space shuttles with gardening tools so anyone can have a space shuttle of their own”.

azab2c:
What does mean?
Its the V1 Logo… Seems like a good like button to me. I think the voron guys use the voron logo on discord if I remember right. Was just a thought.
Discord lets you put anything you want in their emoji system. I’m not sure if Discourse does, or if it’s just the standard emojis
I don’t really care which one is the default, but it does feel weird not seeing the heart down there anymore lol
