Any thoughts on adding emoji (or custom) reactions to posts? Might be a fun free alternative to Reddit’s award system. Might just add clutter.

Edit: nvm, found an open issue where you said you’d like to add it but there are lots of other things to do first: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/2541

We did it at hexbear, the changes might make it upstream some day!

This is more about reactions like mastodon has, IE they’d live alongside upvotes, but not affect the sorting.

Just as with reddit’s awards it would just be clutter

Maybe i would approve of just one special award award that you can grant once per day to a post or comment. But not tens of different icons atop of every post that would be awful.
