Could reactions be it's own NIP or just a single UTF-8 character body of a NIP-01 reply which is recognized by clients? Additionally could there be a NIP for event amend like how there is for deletion? Would it address the Twitter edit button scenario?

Damus is currently sending out likes as kind7 with an empty content. Was thinking about making the content an emoji as well for reactions.

If kind7 defined "reaction" and the body was reaction itself (an emoji/code/etc.) this would allow for greater utilization. What points are there against this method?

Seems fine with me, i still think empty content is fine for a generic like/upvote as well. Should just start with something and go with it. Don't have to overthink it too much to start, we can always expand on it.
