Allow users to pick positive reactions to blog posts

[ghost]

I think it would be interesting to allowing the users to react to each other's blog posts, similar to how facebook lets us react to posts

I don't feel this is a constructive way to interact with blogs nor a way to encourage meaningful feedback

I feel like for the blog writers, it would be not exactly convenient. They wouldn't get that feedback on their blogs, only on the planet.

I wonder if there is a positive way to do this? I appreciate what @agarcia-caicedo is saying. For example, Medium does "Claps" as a positive reaction, and doesn't offer an inverse, negative reaction. I kind of like the idea of being able to say, "This is good." or "Me too!" or something else that would be positive.

@humphd maybe we could have multiple reactions for people to use?

I agree with @dbeigi idea, I think having a set of reactions would be the best implementation of this, similar to the reactions for the comments here to keep a positive environment. Then we can use the reaction count as a starting point to sort by trending mentioned in #110

After a discussion, we have decided against post interactions within telescope. This issue will be closing.
