And let everyone sort posts by emoji count.
Nobody wants a visual cacophony of zoomer hieroglyphics on every post, so yes congratulations on the unpopular opinion .
How are emoji zoomer ? If I had to guess of say they’re more of a millennial thing
Upvoted as unpopular.
I hate 99% of the emoji usage but the idea has some merits. I feel like the sort of “anonymous reaction” that we give in Lemmy should be a bit more fine-grained than just up/downvotes.

Upvoted for being unpopular. I already block people who use emojis here anyway
I’m actually surprised to see comments saying this is unpopular. I actually thought it sounded refreshing.
When I switched from Reddit to Lemmy, I stopped sorting everything by Top. I got tired of seeing the highest voted posts and comments in my feed and wanted to see a variety of things instead.
Now, the top of my feed is not necessarily the highest voted or most popular opinion, and I can enjoy a variety of comments under posts without just reading what the community most agrees with at the top of a feed.
Finding a different and unique way to sort posts and comments would be interesting, in my opinion. For instance, if I want to see funny or sarcastic remarks instead of serious ones, I could just sort by laugh reacts.
But… I understand how much work it would be to change an entire community over to that standard, and I realize it’s not really reasonable. So I get the unpopular opinion. I just think it would be fun to see.
