SMS is being replaced with RCS, which does have reactions…even Apple is adding RCS…

Welcome to the future.

RCS is already here on Android, but I keep it disabled in order to avoid read receipts and typing indicators.

You can disable read receipts and typing indicators without disabling RCS

You can? That didn't used to be the case on my phone at all. Glad to hear they changed that.

I use Google Messages. I assumed that was what you were using too. Messages settings - RCS chats - Send read receipts and Show typing indicators.
