I don't totally agree. The plain like, even if low-effort, is a good signal (at least in the WoT) as quick positive feedback, or read confirmation.
Emoji are expressive but don't have an universal meaning, and often are repetitive, so it's really difficult to sum up and summarize the reactions sentiment.
For machines, yes. Humans can understand emojis VERY well.
What's this?
🤌
Picture this will all hearts. I wouldn't know which ones found it funny, which ones found cringe, which ones were with me and which ones a watching the whole thing unfold.
Like are the lamest, most useless thing you can send to a post.
Maybe it's just me, but I can't discern a true objective meaning here.
Btw, you didn't answer my question ;)
Btw, reactions are 99,99% positive, so emoji are just a shade, they don't bring any real meaning. They are just gamification of a positive feedback. That's not bad, but it doesn't make the plain like lame.
If emojis don't convey meaning then why can two people that don't speak the same language convey it with them?
Actually I had to clarify, *not all* of them have an unambiguous meaning. Many of them do. And if we consider the most used ones, are shades of a positive feedback.
Can confirm. I am a human and I can understand emojis.
You do not speak for the autistic among us.
