Let users select the emojis they want would require us to add some library with a emoji selector, so they can select any reaction they want to. (I would prefer to not implement this ourselves) We could also add a configuration option to settings so users could define the reaction they want to use, so it can go a bit faster.

Yeah I agree that we should probably use a library for custom emojis. Alternatively we could expose the list of predefined emojis in the settings popover as an input field where the user can just paste in a list of their favourite emojis that will become available as reactions along with the default ones.

But the first ask is to just spice up the current emoji selection. Wonder what @daniel thinks about this?

We might also need to adjust things in heartwood, I’m getting an error when I use emojis that aren’t in our default list (e.g. 🫶, ❤️, etc.):

Editing reactions failed"invalid args `action` for command `edit_issue`: invalid reaction"

Just so we don’t loose track, this is blocked currently by the open patch for heartwood here https://app.radicle.xyz/nodes/ash.radicle.garden/rad:z3gqcJUoA1n9HaHKufZs5FCSGazv5/patches/4bbd94f9d3c318a33b5991485a88c2d9703cd0fe

So the patch mentioned in comment 062c585 has been merged but we rely on an older commit of the radicle crate. Will tackle this once heartwood 1.2.0 comes out and new crates are published

Def not top prio. Just thought it would be nice to have a different set to choose from without even spending time to implement the full emoji picker.
