Description

I reacted with ❤️ to this message after Olivier kindly reviewed my PR. However, as my GitHub account is connected to hookshot (and was the one used to set up hookshot in this room), that translated into me reacting ❤️ to my own PR on GitHub. Which is hilarious, but unexpected.

I would perhaps expect this to happen if I had reacted to a "PR created" message, but not a "seperate person reviewed your PR" message. If anything, it should try and add a ❤️ to their PR review message (if it has one).

Research direction

Start by tracing how Matrix reactions on GitHub review notifications are handled, using the reported review-message scenario as the reproduction case. Done means reacting to another person's review no longer adds a reaction to the reporter's own GitHub pull request, while the intended review-message behavior is preserved.
