Hi @immaterial – as far as I know there’s not currently a way to do that. One thing I’d suggest is opening up a Feature Request for Gutenberg (which is the Editor used in WordPress) to make that text editable.

You could use the Say What plugin to change the text strings of the comments link block.
With the plugin active, go to Tools > Text Changes > Add New
These are the 3 text strings you would need to add.
#1
Original string:
No comments<span class="screen-reader-text"> on %s</span>
Replacement string:
Zero reactions<span class="screen-reader-text"> on %s</span>
#2
Original string:
%1$s comment<span class="screen-reader-text"> on %2$s</span>
Replacement string:
%1$s reaction<span class="screen-reader-text"> on %2$s</span>
#3
Original string:
%1$s comments<span class="screen-reader-text"> on %2$s</span>
Replacement string:
%1$s reactions<span class="screen-reader-text"> on %2$s</span>
Leave ‘Text domain’ and ‘Text content’ fields empty for all 3 of the text changes.
Merci. It worked!
Cool! I will mark this thread as resolved 🙂
