What would you like to do?

I would like to be able to send freeform reactions on all platforms

Why would you like to do it?

  • MSC2677 supports reactions with long keys, i.e. text reactions
  • This feature is already available through other apps and our users can see those reactions
  • It is already possible to send freeform reactions through /devtools and bots from Element, so at the moment the feature exists but is obscure
  • Element users can already "+1" a freeform reaction on any platform by clicking it

How would you like to achieve it?

  • By being able to compose a freeform reaction on any platform
  • Being able to view long reactions in a user friendly way (I can't see any upper limit set by the MSC)
  • Be able to report reactions to moderators
  • Remove reactions as a moderator/admin user in a room

Would be cool if it would support displaying pictures as reaction as well.
e.G. this would be useful for Discord Bridges.

I don't understand why this is not a feature in the official Matrix app. It's litterally a Matrix feature.

This is not something we're open to at the minute so I'm going to go ahead and make it a discussion
