Abstract: An online system communicates a lead generation message to a client device associated with a user. The lead generation message includes a selectable option authorizing a third-party entity to open a channel of communication with the user. If the online system receives from the client device an interaction with the selectable option, the online system sends a notification to the third-party entity indicating that the user associated with the client device interacted with the lead generation content item. The third-party entity may then send a request to the online system to send a message to the user via a messaging system controlled by the online system. The online system thus enables the third-party entity to communicate with the user via the messaging system. The online system then uses information about the communication to train a model to optimize the selection of lead generation messages to users.

Abstract: An online system presents a content item to users and receives selections of reaction icons from the users. The online system generates a background animation with the selected reaction icons and a foreground animation to be layered on top of the background animation. The online system sends the background and foreground animations to a client device to be cached. Further, the online system presents the content item to a viewing user associated with the client device and receives a selection of a reaction icon from the viewing user. The online system selects a subset of the users based on the viewing user's affinity to the users, retrieves images of the selected users, and send the images to the client device. The client device customizes the background and foreground animations based on the images and the viewing user's reaction icon to generate a compound animation for display to the viewing user.
