TL;DR

Update the default status reaction emojis in status-reactions.ts to more universally readable symbols, such as ⏳ for stallSoft and ⚠️ for stallHard, to improve user understanding.

Guidance

• Review the current emoji mappings in status-reactions.ts and consider updating them to more intuitive symbols, as suggested in the issue.
• Verify that the proposed new emojis are supported and render correctly across different platforms, including Discord, Telegram, and Slack.

• Consider adding a documentation or tooltip to explain the meaning of each status reaction emoji, especially for users who may not be familiar with the new symbols.

const statusReactions = {
  stallSoft: '⏳', // Hourglass symbol for slow but working
  stallHard: '⚠️', // Warning symbol for something's stuck
  thinking: '🧠', // Brain symbol for thinking
  // ... other updated mappings ...
};

Apply the suggested workaround by updating the default status reaction emojis to more intuitive symbols, such as ⏳ for stallSoft and ⚠️ for stallHard, to improve user understanding and reduce confusion.
