Oddbean new post about login | logout I forgot to convey my thoughts on Amethyst here.. I think the reaction, in addition to 1984, is unnecessary. The fact that its happening without the user being informed is an unexpected result. If users wanted to leave a reaction they could do that before the 1984 report. Or the dialog/panel that the user goes through could offer that as a choice.
Agreed on all points, with the qualification that there are probably some emojis you can safely map to + (❤️ and 👍) come to mind. But I could probably be convinced otherwise.
yeah, that's the point... it should have a polarity extra to the decoration... but then we run into issues with clients picking their own mappings... and client complications and user cognitive burden... probably the most practical way is [+][-] and each, if enabled, pops up an emoji board, and adds a sign indicator tag
👍 can also be neutral or sarcastic implying a negative depending on context and participants. like a "thats cool but we dont care" https://i.nostr.build/YoaWrHBNnUOKuPU7.gif
That's fair. Human language is much more than can be compressed into a binary up/down vote, even for the simplest single-character pictograms.
