I find myself using them on pretty much every platform that has them: matrix, masto, discord, etc.

These would be completely separate from votes, and have no affect on sorting.

What do you think the positives and negatives would be of having them?

yes please, that would be awesome

most of the time I find myself reading posts here that I have some thoughts about, but most of the time it's not worth/enough for a comment, but an emoji could capture that perfectly i think

i also think awards (yes, even paid ones) are a great idea, but that's a separate issue

i think awards would be a good way for people to support independent instances

yeah, small visual customizations that don't affect much is imo a perfect form of monetization for social media, games and lot of other things ๐Ÿ˜Ž
