Veritula should have some way to acknowledge an idea, including a way to show that a thread is resolved, at least for the time being, without having to comment.

How about emoji reactions?

Reactions can be ambiguous. It wouldn’t always be clear which part of an idea someone is reacting to.

I could implement reactions on a per-paragraph basis.

It isn’t clear what would happen during a revision. A paragraph might be changed or deleted. Too complicated.

But presumably, the same is true for reactions to ideas as a whole. Reactions would have to be removed for revisions.

For reactions to paragraphs, at least you could tell if the content someone reacted to has changed, and only then remove the reaction.

Why should reacts persist through revisions?
