Reaction collector not working

Reaction collector does not seem to work for me , i am expecting to be able to collect reactions on a message or embed.

Here is the slash command i created

js 
const { SlashCommandBuilder } = require('discord.js');
 
 // Create a slash command
 module.exports = {
     data: new SlashCommandBuilder()
         .setName('ping')
         .setDescription('Replies with Pong!'),
     async execute(interaction) {
         // Reply with a regular message
         await interaction.reply('Pong! This is a simple response.');
 
         // Log to console when someone uses the command
         console.log(`User ${interaction.user.tag} used the /ping command.`);
 
         // Listen for an interaction with an emote
         const collectorFilter = (reaction, user) => {
             return reaction.emoji.name === ':thumbsup:' && user.id === interaction.user.id;
         };
 
         const collector = interaction.channel.createMessageComponentCollector({
             filter: collectorFilter,
             time: 15000, // 15 seconds
         });
 
         collector.on('collect', (interaction) => {
             console.log(`User ${interaction.user.tag} reacted with 👍`);
         });
 
         collector.on('end', (collected, reason) => {
             console.log(`Collected ${collected.size} items. Reason: ${reason}`);
         });
     },
 };

and the results i get in console after reacting:

User xxxx used the /ping command.
Collected 0 items. Reason: time


I have verified permissions on the developer site: Permissions are: application commands, bot, manage messages, send messages, read messages. I have many other slash commands and functions working.

I have tried this with an embed and regular message. I have tried to listen for any reaction, as i thought it could be the type of thumbs up.

Looking at the discord guide this should work:

https://discordjs.guide/popular-topics/collectors.html#await-reactions
Imagine a guide... that explores the many possibilities for your discord.js bot.
