Obviously "reaction to" is correct but I wonder if "reaction on" is correct. If so what is the difference?

Examples:

People have a positive reaction to good things.
People have a positive reaction on good things.

Are these sentences correct? And is there any difference?

I have not found the collocation “reaction on” in any dictionary. However, I found an article where “react on” is used. Also on this site there is the question which might me useful. You can see the following link:

  • Please paste in the quote from the article where you found "react on", and include a link to it. Did you read the answer to that other question? What are you still unsure about?
