• React to a Message in Discord on Desktop

To use an emoji reaction for a message on your desktop, first, launch the Discord app or Discord for the web on your computer. Then access the message to which you want to react. On the message, hover your cursor to reveal options. Then, in the message’s top-right corner, click the “Add Reaction” (emoji) icon.

Discord will open an emoji picker allowing you to choose an emoji for your message reaction. Here, click any emoji you like.

Your selected emoji will be added to your message as a reaction.

And that’s it. You can add multiple emoji reactions to the same message. To do so, simply open the emoji picker and choose another emoji to add it. To remove your reaction, click your reaction emoji and it will disappear.

If you don’t see the “Add Reaction” option for your messages, the feature might be disabled in your Discord client. To enable it, in Discord’s bottom-left corner, click “User Settings” (a gear icon).

In the left sidebar, click “Text & Images.”

In the “Text & Images” section on the right, enable the “Show Emoji Reactions on Messages” option.
