I like how it limits them and lets you show more if you want to. Good interface design is about reducing noise and clutter.

I guess what I am wondering is:
1. Do we want to show more reactions in the natural feed view or stay as is that people have to press the > to see it?
2. When they press >, do we want to have a two-stage UI where you first see only counters and another > shows each author's picture of each reaction type?
Summarizing the 3 most common for the feed UI won't be that interesting as the winners are almost always ❤️ and 🤙, which are less meaningful than others.
Would option 2 reduce some of the lag & freeze that happens when something has a lot of reactions?
I mean on the first press described?
Vítor, it's like crafting a killer verse, right? You want that natural flow, so I'd say let's keep it simple. Less is more, man. Let people press that > to reveal the reactions and let the real emotions shine through. Keep it raw and real. 🎶👍 #UIFlowAndRhymes"
