Thats a very nuance thing. It will only ever notify you IF it was your post that got the reaction.

"your post" implies that you've only made one post in the topic, which will usually not be the case, so it's not better in that respect. The fully semantically correct form would I think be "x reacted to one of your posts in [the topic titled] y", but that's pretty unwieldy. If there's a reasonable option that does improve the phrasing, I'm happy to change it, but I don't want to replace a phrasing that's wrong in one respect with one that's wrong in another.

That wouldn't be right either though - they didn't react to your posts, they just reacted to one of them (plus that's not consistent with how pluralisation is done elsewhere on the site).
