hovering reactions is bad

Snaps
  • Edited

I'd like to make a post dedicated to how much I dislike the hovering. Personally the other changes aren't as bothersome to myself as the hovering. I accidentally reacted to a message in a server with only one click, the right side of the discord desktop app has always been a safe space in terms of clicking area, you can't ever do anything with only one miss-click, the worst that can happen is on the left side of the app where you can accidentally join a voice channel but that's understandable. Plus highlighting a message and having it change color is seriously bothersome to my self-diagnosed OCD.

    I hate it. There are only a few things I hate about new discord changes, and this is one of them. The other one are those gifs they added.

    I have the same problem. I have my mouse off to the right of the text when I scroll and accidentally click the suggested reactions.

    I have a tremble in my hands and my finger tends to click without me wanting to a lot. It inadvertently ends up reacting to posts. This is highly unacceptable. Not to mention that these 3 reaction suggestions are the same no matter where you are in Discord. That's hardly a suggestion. It's also a waste of real estate in the UI. I could literally go on forever with how this is bad and wrong. I sincerely hope they either revert this particular change or at least give us an option to turn the suggestions off.

    I've seen people suggest turning reactions off in the options. But that turns reactions off completely. I certainly don't want the whole reaction system disabled. Just this part.

    I can't even react anymore, and my phones say I can only react to certain channels. But it also doesn't show up when I react to it.



    Is my phone broken or is this the new Discord update?
