Suggestion Adding A Couple More Forum Like Emojis

I think having a variety of reaction emojis in addition to the standard we have would be cool. Sometimes the limited reactions may not express correctly what you want to be conveyed correctly sometimes. Just me?

Honestly, the nice thing about reactions is how you can pretty quickly get a general view of what people think of a msg, too many reactions and suddenly that's not as easy to see.
It's also nice to see something that isn't purely a straight-up thumbs up or down, the faces available do let you convey a pretty wide range of emotion.
If the reactions can't quite convey how I feel about a post then that's the point where I'd probably just reply to the post anyway, those emotions are just too niche to justify a reaction emoji.

Would like to see a confused reaction :thonkfish: for those times when someone posts something that's difficult to interpret which I've seen happen a bit. Probably a couple of other emojis that might also work super well as reactions but I haven't been able to think of any

I agree, that not too many should be added but at least a couple more that adds to its general usage, because I agree with how it is right now - just looking at a little more wiggle room for the future that makes it easier. Im not suggesting we add 15+ because thats just exessive.

Think of it this way, we only have a thumbs up option but no thumbs down option, and it's widely used. Look at your post reactions lol or any other threat post. I would say at least to add a thumbs down. One of my issues is, we have one but not the other. All I get instead is a mad face or sad face, what if im not mad nor sad but generally don't agree? What if everyone made good points and I still want to submit input? Then that gets into the realm of people just sending in senseless -1s with no elaboration. Now do I think that this will help the issue? Maybe, but im open to more ideas. As you said, it quickly gives people a general view of what people may think of a message. This is all idea generation and no one is saying to remove anything but to add generalities just like how you mentioned a question mark face.

Just like what Foxy said, a dislike would be nice :)

So far the best ideas seen in my opinion are:

- Question Mark Face
- Dislike Option

I could count on my hands how many times I used a sad face than if I were to have at least two of the options I mentioned above.

I like this convo so far though
