I'm not taking this literally, but Tumblr actually does add flashy stuff like this a lot (they added fucking confetti when you make a post. WHY) and it has been hell for my photosensitive friends.

I do think we need any kind of visual feedback though, maybe some sort of accent color. I find myself second-guessing a lot if I actually clicked on a button or not

I would hate this personally. (tho you can take that with a grain of salt, I'm not "from" fedi and I'm still getting used to that voters on a post are viewable at all.) I don't always upvote things because I love them enough to share, sometimes it's just like a pat on the back

Retweets are absolutely reversible. (And so are boosts, but it was initially glitched)

Your cat seriously looks like a stuffed animal, like the Salem puppet from the old Sabrina show. (Meant with affection in my heart)

I plan on switching instances whenever account transfer becomes feasible! But as it stands right now I'd rather not have to get my account set up all over again for another instance that might potentially go down or make radical changes. That was the very thing that put me off of Mastodon, before they added migration, and I'd rather not repeat that again. (If you have more time and energy than I do, and you're thinking about manually migrating - absolutely do so)

I've been saying this to friends, but I'd be careful with even cursory viewing of Reddit for the foreseeable future. It took a long enough time as it was for Reddit to become not overwhelmingly reactionary. The Reddit migration moving into primarily leftist spaces is going to leave behind a website that is quite literally conservative, and bitter. (Note that I am not suggesting people stay behind to re-balance it, merely to be aware that the site is not going to be just the same site with less people on it.)
