Seems like a signal-to-noise problem. Some amount seems like a useful signal, but too much is too hard to digest. Privileges based on karma make some sense but restricting it based on time (1/day/user or something) seems pretty crude, so I don’t like that idea.
Not sure if this is a good idea either, but the number of reacts allowed per post could be based on the amount of karma that user generated on comments on that post. That way, a user who’s doing too many reacts would be encouraged to just write a comment instead. That still doesn’t seem like exactly the right incentive, but I’m also not sure how I want it to work.
Maybe the ability to filter out reacts from a particular (prolific) user would suffice?

Yeah I would like to mute some users site-wide so that I never see reacts from them & their comments are hidden by default....
