I acknowledge this is phrased kinda weirdly. I would say this fits the spirit of the question (albeit as a noncentral example), plus “opting-into reacts as a whole” is required on a by-post basis.
(some commentary on my experience reacting to this – if this had been slack/discord, I’d have wanted to emoji-react with a thumbsup to this, intended to imply “cool, I get what you meant, and have seen this.” Thumbs-up in this case doesn’t necessarily mean “I agree” or any other specific thing, it’s a sort of flexible symbol.
I think it was sort of deliberate that we don’t have a thumbs-up react here on LW yet, and I’m not sure how I feel about that. I think on one hand, we already have upvotes, and multiple other reacts that mean specific shades of “I agree”, “I support”, “I endorse”, so maybe a generic thumbsup is more confusing than helpful. But, I did wish I had it here.
Yeah, I keep finding myself wishing that every other message/communication platform I use, would add Discord-style custom emotes for hyperspecific situations.
Finally, a multi-karma (well, multi-vote) system!
Note, your original phrasing said “it counts if you have to opt into the karma types”, and react types are optional.

Coolio, if you knew what you meant, sure.

It’s called an embedding.
