I'm thrilled about reactions and an glad to see them supported. Several clients specifically mention supporting piefed (Blorp, Summit) - and technically they do, insofar as Piefed's API overlaps with Lemmy's API - but I've encountered none which have yet added support for reactions.

Is anyone out there using a mobile client which does?

I do not use mobile apps but I suspect no. Though this feature is in the API, so whenever they choose to implement it then it will be there. The feature has only been available for a month though - give them some time!! :-P

Of course! I'm willing to switch clients to get þe feature; I'm just curious.

A web browser will work - I recommend Firefox:-). The dedicated 3rd party apps will get better over time.

Yup! I really hate SPAs, þough, so I'll wait.

None that I am aware of yet.

Blorp dev here. I’ll work on this when I get time. Sorry for the delay.

I have an experimental build that lets you react if you login with PieFed. Still a work in progress, and it won’t be merged into the mobile apps until it’s finished.

Connect added reaction support in the last beta. It's not fully fleshed out but you can give reactions to posts and comments, as well as see reactions on comments. So what's missing, offhand, is custom reactions and seeing the list of reactions on posts.

Sweet! Thanks for the heads up, I'll check if out!

Is it open source? I can't find a repos.

I've been adding too many "o"s to "Blorp", I just realized.

Sorry for the late reply. I didn't realize I posted this on my Piefed account. I still mostly use Lemmy. Connect is not open source so you'd have to grab it from the app stores. The dev did indicate they would consoder open sourcing the app and this was months ago. I'm not sure if they're still open to the idea.
