Why though
This is giving me “how do you do, fellow kids” vibes.
Yes, it's a massive level of cringe.
Gmail is convenient, but if it's about to be filled with 😊 and 👍 then I've got to stop using it for any serious communication.
I work at a large company so get a lot of emails. This could conceivably cutdown on the amount of "Nice job!" type emails that don't really have much substance.
Oh that's a good point, it could help in professional settings
If it cuts down the Reply to All good job chains, I’m for it.
Outlook has had this for a while, and I use it a fair bit to acknowledge that I've read the email, but without actually replying.
Because innovation is their passion, and clearly e-mail needed to be innovated on.
