Some of the emoji names in the current set are also highly misleading at times. I have seen 😕 be used to express bittersweet emotions and sorrow such as when a large project is finally sunset. I've also seen :laugh: be used to express joy, which is very different from laughter. Having a PR that makes someone happy is very different from someone laughing at my PR. With the recent push for more communication to be done online, it's more important than ever that people don't misunderstand, and emojis are rife for misunderstanding especially when limited so much. |

Looks related to #69934. I'll repost my comment from there here: There are merits in having a very limited list of reaction emojis: the more emojis you add to denote subtler and subtler nuances, the less of a universal language it becomes. You have to explain newcomers to a project when to use "thumbs up" and when to use "plus", for instance (to take the example of https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/69934#discussioncomment-9534999 above), you take the risk of different people using them with different implicit meanings, you trigger endless questions: how to compare a comment having received 3 "thumbs up" and 2 "pluses" with a comment having received 4 "thumbs up" and 1 "plus" (and what if a given person reacted with both emojis...), etc. On the other hand, I think that a "Done" reaction emoji (probably a checkmark) is really missing: its meaning is clear, and this would avoid cluttering threads with comments merely saying "Done". |
