Reactions allow users to React to a post from a choice of emojis, rather than only the Like heart.
A reaction can be created either by clicking the like icon or by hovering and selecting a reaction from the reaction picker.
To remove a reaction, click the reaction again. (after 24 hours you can no longer do this)
On the left side of the post, there will be a list of reactions. Hovering on a reaction will show who used it. Clicking on any of the reactions will open up a list showing everyone who used any reaction on that post.
