If your client doesn't support custom emojis that's expected
Sounds like you already found the config option, so not sure what this issue is for. The default behavior is images, and the config option is there to send them as text shortcodes if you don't use a client that supports custom reaction images.

Aah, so this is a client issue? Is that an Element screenshot? If so, mine doesn't have that option, but if they're working on it, I can wait.
Sorry for the noise.
In normal text the custom emoji show up as expected, in reactions they show up as text. For a recent example, the reaction server-side is
:lel:
but as displayed in matrix, the reaction button displays (a truncated form of) the textmxc://ancilla.ca/AXUz2UOSJQBxdvRtjTEJ1E4k9QUuMPWM
and the aria-label is[list of users] reacted with mxc://ancilla.ca/AXUz2UOSJQBxdvRtjTEJ1E4k9QUuMPWM
rather than showing the react name.Setting
custom_emoji_reactions: false
behaves as expected: the reaction shows up as the textual form:lel:
