As a sign language interpreter on US money map, the recent Zoom updates have become problematic for me. When I sign the number 10 (which looks like a thumbs up), a thumbs up emoji appears on the screen. Additionally, if I sign with two thumbs up, I get fireworks. This is extremely disruptive, especially when I’m interpreting sensitive topics.
I need to turn off these reactions on Zoom immediately! Any advice on how to do this would be greatly appreciated.

@jordancoxe - I can see how that would be frustrating when signing. You can click on the up arrow by the heart on the bottom of the screen and make sure that 'Recognize hand gestures' is turned off in your client. If you manage your account, you can also turn it off for everyone, or for everyone in a group.
