Replyke v7 uses an 8-type reaction system that replaces the legacy upvote/downvote arrays. Reactions can be applied to both entities and comments. Each reaction type has a defined effect on the target owner’s reputation score.

​
ReactionType

The set of valid reaction values:
ValueReputation EffectDescription
"upvote"+1Positive endorsement

"love"+2Strong positive reaction
"wow"+1Surprise or amazement

"angry"0Negative emotional reaction
"funny"+1Humor reaction

​
ReactionCounts

Every entity and comment includes a reactionCounts object with the current count for each reaction type: 
{
  upvote: number;
  downvote: number;
  like: number;
  love: number;
  wow: number;
  sad: number;
  angry: number;
  funny: number;
}
