Weird reactions

[Mateja]

What are these reactions in foreign languages?
Example:

ref

[Kanishka_Developer (Kanishka Chakraborty)]

That’s the Russian “smirk” emoji:

[Mateja]

Then why does it say

ухмыляюшийця

And the image is not found?

EDIT: Yes, I added a russian keyboard just to type that phrase.

[Kanishka_Developer (Kanishka Chakraborty)]

Because it’s not a normal smirk; it’s a Russian smirk.

(I have no idea lol)

@Mateja is a curious kid

[Mateja]

@Kanishka_Developer

smirk

Are you sure?

[Kanishka_Developer (Kanishka Chakraborty)]

I used Google Translate’s instant camera, and it said “smirking”.

[yanquisalexander (Alexander Barrios)]

It is because they use Google Translator throughout the site

If the site is translated when any user react then the plugin “Retort” will send the translated reaction to the database, I will post this in Discourse Meta to see if there is a possible solution

Yeah, in this way you can also insert a custom emoji keyword by right-clicking any emoji from emoji selector then selecting Inspect Element and changing the title property.

Just call it a Discourse bug “feature”

Oh this is going to get abused real fast

[Kanishka_Developer (Kanishka Chakraborty)]

You were saying…?

I’ve unlisted this because we don’t want it abused. I’ve already sent a warning to one person for abusing it. If it continues we’ll have to disable the plugin.

[Mateja]

That’s exactly,
