I did think about this a few years ago and opted for 👍. I feel a little weird when I see the white reacts used by others. This is not so much of a problem anymore but Slack/etc used to not stack the reacts, so if everyone was thumbs-upping you'd have a bunch of different ones instead of just one count and it made voting with 👍👎 more difficult. If nonwhite comrades tell me they prefer the white ones I'll switch but I suspect nobody gives a shit.

I'm honestly a little suspicious of anyone who uses the white 👍. I feel like the only people who care enough to explicitly use it instead of the yellow are either virtue signalling liberals or white supremacists. I'm probably reading far, far too much into people's emoji choices though.

I find any non-default emoji colour weird. Like why do you feel the need to tell me your skin colour?
