What's popular and why

As news spread of a nuclear deal between Iran and world powers, there's been a huge reaction online.

US President Barack Obama said that "every pathway to a nuclear weapon is cut off" for Iran while his counterpart Hassan Rouhani hailed a "new chapter" in Iran's relations with the rest of the world.

Online, there was a vocal and mostly negative reaction in Saudi Arabia, Israel and the US. But what do Iranians think of the deal?
