Nah, it's gotta be more square than that. I refuse to have one single one look wonky.

But that being said I do often think we need a sympathetic hug instead of the smiling one, so I'll try to come up with something additional.

So, I took this as an opportunity to fix the other two reactions I added the revoked. So they're back, with the sentiment of "tired" and "waiting" but less troll-like.

Then the less happy hug

And because I do what I want

It's my most used react and I like it as is. I feel like the whole It's smiling is overthinking it.

If we do replace it can we not do more of these animated reacts? The react panel is out of control enough as is.

To clarify, I don't intend to remove the existing hug reaction. Just to add another option to convey sympathy.

I concede that I like gifs. I can add more static ones if you have motion sickness.

Having one for sympathy was my goal with the thread so adding a new one or replacing the original is fine with me
