Are you imagining these reacts for top-level posts only like tags, or also for comments and for replies to comments like karma? I feel like the latter would be more useful. Shortform, for example, kind of makes comments act like small top-level posts. Lowering the bar for participation seems more important the deeper a reply is nested.
a counter point might be that having aggregated feedback on a small comment might be less interesting and make the interface more noisy
but I think overall I would like to have reacts on short post, and maybe on top-level comments or all comments too. maybe some reacts would be for all text, and some reacts would only be available for posts. I don’t know; I’d need to think more about it or experiment:)

yeah that’s a good point!
