Fibery Is Making Zoomers Suffer (Emoji Support Needed)

  1. Zoomers can’t function without emojis.
  2. Currently, it’s only possible to leave reactions on comments.
  3. Result: dopamine-starved Zoomers. Not ideal. :cry:

Jokes aside - it would be great to support reactions on more than just comments. For example:

  • Any entity field (if enabled via a field option by the DB admin)
  • Or at the very least, Rich Text fields (also toggleable). This would be especially useful for things like Feeds, changelogs, meeting notes, or announcements.

Let the dopamine flow. :collision::sparkles:

We do like emojis, but we will never add reactions to fields. It will make Fibery much more complex internally. If you miss some other things related to emojis, please share them!

One idea we have is Emoji Reactions block inside rich text, check it out

Ah, that’s a pity.

Our main (and currently only) use case is this: we use the Feed view to publish blog-like posts related to projects. People rarely leave comments on these posts, but they would happily drop an emoji reaction (for example, directly on the Rich Text field).

Reactions here would go a way in boosting lightweight engagement. :speech_balloon::sparkles:

Oh, cool, this would also solve the issue for us.

Internal Comments in a rich text field are essentially ‘reactions to fields’, right?

(related to the long standing request that comments become first class citizen entities in order to be a well integrated feature where comments can be part of views)

So user emoji’s would be just a variant of the same future implentation of comment entities.

Did you consider using Threads for this?

Nope, comment is an entity, so it is reaction to entity

Yes, we were considering whether to use Threads or Feed for this. However, for micro-blogging use cases, Feed seems to be a better fit. It’s more suitable for sharing important project updates, new releases, polls, and similar content. Ensuring these posts remain visible and don’t get buried in a flood of random chat messages, which often happens with Threads.
