I’m a heavy emoji user, texting is such a poor medium for communication, many times people get the wrong message, but with an emoji you’ll get an idea of the face I’m making, so less chance of misunderstanding

I noticed that every time I add an emoji to a comment it gets downvoted, so I tested my theory, wrote a comment without an emoji, got upvotes, went back and added an emoji, got downvotes…

On Reddit people use emojis a lot, on Lemmy I NEVER saw anyone use emojis, my account is new but still for the time I spent here, I never saw the use of emojis

So, is it just me, have you noticed this small detail ? and do you miss emojis the way I do ? 😭

    I love emojis too :))

    I need to get an emoji keyboard for my computer, because I feel so rude whenever I can’t type ‘😅’ or another fitting emoji 😅

      On windows you can use “windows + .” to get an emoji/symbol picker. “Command + control + space” on MacOS. Probably exists on most Linux distros as well.
