For the Russian LessWrong slack chat we agreed on the following emoji semantics:
:+1: means “I want to see more messages like this”
:-1: means “I want to see less messages like this”
:plus: means “I agree with a position expressed here”
:minus: means “I disagree”
:same: means “it’s the same for me” and is used for impressions, subjective experiences and preferences, but without approval connotations
:delta: means “I have changed my mind/updated”
We also have 25 custom :fallacy_*: emoji for pointing out fallacies, and a few other custom emoji for other low-effort, low-noise signaling.
It all works quite well and after using it for a few months the idea of going back to simple upvotes/downvotes feels like a significant regression.
Shared here: What reacts do you to be able to give to posts? (emoticons, cognicons, and more)
This Slack-specific emoji capability is akin to Facebook Reactions; namely a wider array of aggregated post/comment actions.
