  people are still allowed to voice opinions

  now fix the shitty client on appletv

  iirc slack did it and I’m sure github issues and gitlab too. but usually you don’t have control of the order, IIRC with slack it was in the urder you added them but once more people added same reactions then it would sort them in order most to fewest.

  i was kinda thinking about one of those parts of unicode where characters can be combined … that’s common for some scripts but i vaguely recall that i saw a mention somewhere that something like that exists also for emojis (in the unicode) …

  i admit I already kinda seen all of those as “evening plans”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What should be emoji reaction for "me too" in the general sense⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  are these double-emojis a thing? or you mean those apps that let you add multiple reactions (sadly signal does not seem to allow that, neither telegram and those are the only 2 i really use i guess)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What should be emoji reaction for "me too" in the general sense⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  🙋‍♂️ too

  i mean, that’s a greeting, right? :D

  (or “i want ice-cream too, please”)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What should be emoji reaction for "me too" in the general sense⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  i mean if it was something like flight reservation etc. then screenshot would be definitely in place.

  this is something we do literally 2 times a week (and plan to do so until we’re able to go to the gym :D) though, and it’s pretty low stakes.

  i’m not looking for something that just works in that kind of context. (and in general, actually it’s not like i’m on lemmy looking to resolve things with my pal :D)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What should be emoji reaction for "me too" in the general sense⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  i get to be confused by colors

  on second thought, i’m 45, old enough to be vaguely aware of ye olde internet culture (i was in uni back then so i saw them baby neckbeards but sadly did not have the good taste & judgment to hang out with them and decided to ruin my brain with beer and weed instead) … at this age we should start getting used to various vision issues :D 🧓

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What should be emoji reaction for "me too" in the general sense⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  should be white on blue, but it’s showing as white on orange

  my redshift kicks in at 7 pm and sometimes i don’t realize and i get to be confused by colors. (probably nothing to do with the orange thing though, although i do have experience that my brain can imagine colors)

  just sayin’

  🤌well said, great post, stuff like that

  is that what the stereotypical Italian hand thing means? i thought it was something rather negative or neutral but never asked…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What should be emoji reaction for "me too" in the general sense⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  by the way we are both familiar with IRC where I think +1 would just fit the bill really well

  never realized ➕ is a good replacement for that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What should be emoji reaction for "me too" in the general sense⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  darn i did not realize that.

  i suppose i should vertical-record: the reservation app open in my librewolf, pan (swoosh!) to my hand on the mouse, pan (swoosh!) back to the monitor detailing the newly added reservation, pan (swoosh!) to my face winking and smiling with a thumbs up.

  is that about right? i’m learning quick, am i not?

  thanks for the support, so tiktok it is next time!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What should be emoji reaction for "me too" in the general sense⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  it depends on the chat client / config but i like that the lower status of the reaction, ie. it does not even generate notification and a badge.

  my pal can just totally forget about it and just check on it when he needs.

  (it’s often times at random times in the middle of the workday when we exchange these messages so i want to be respectful to his focus.)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What should be emoji reaction for "me too" in the general sense⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I love the crab story.

  I would totally click the crab because if i’m in a good mood all it can mean is just someone being playful so it feels like a tiny adventure.

  On the other hand, If you ever win huge amounts of money and decide to leave your job flipping everyone off you could also say “and those 🦀 's were a test and you FAILED! sheeple!”?

  Teach him kindly and lead him to be a better man. Only if he will not be led, cut him down with a regretful stroke and send him to Buddha.

  Just for entertainment, I’m going to assume your post was a Markdown equivalent of “teaching kindly”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨There should be more negative awards. For example: the most pathetic nation or the most monstrous person of the year.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Fun on paper, but… then imagine people generating their theories to justify why, eg. RFK Jr lost to Musk or vice versa.

  We should not be talking about why “shithead x is actually not so bad as shithead y”, we should be isolating before NASA can actually send BOTH of them to Mars where they belong.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it really worth starting a lemmy community?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  And you stare at it forever and wonder what you could have done better.

  Or move on after realizing that there’s no way you’re going to learn stuff without doing a LOT of stuff, most of which won’t work out or even go anywhere, and it’s perfectly normal and fine to have lots of unfinished/dead/dormant/abandoned/(call-them-whatever-helps-you-move-on) projects.

  Man I’m 45 and I don’t blame the youth for any problems now. But maybe I’m just charging my blame lasers so that I can go even harder when I’m 65. Like, “when I was younger I never blamed the youths for problems but NOW, with YOU it’s justified!”.

  Cats and dogs have more in common than you think.

  For example, did you know that both cats and dogs have four legs? Yeah… There’s even more similarities, I hear…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why isn't the rest of the world doing anything about the USA?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Not acting “for free” does not mean zero-sum game.

  I am no expert but I don’t think nations need to (or do, in general) operate on a zero-sum game. Actions can benefit both sides.
