Did the option to "laugh" at someone's comment get moved someplace else?

One theory was that it was a sensitivity issue that led to its removal, negativity such as mocking and sarcasm. Even laughter has its dark side.

Alternatively, the boards were just getting too silly, and that just couldn’t go on, and so activity to restrict the silliness had to be taken.

You mean to tell me all the laugh emojis I got were actually people mocking me? And to think, I thought I was making friends

No.  It's not like the old thumbsu emoji where it was only used as an FU.  Sometimes it's actually because you say something funny.
