Wait, you… didn’t know this wasn’t Reddit, despite all the different instance domains in every person’s comment? Do you use some kind of fusion Reddit+Lemmy app or something? This is really interesting to me, how that was even possible to happen.
I use Relay for Reddit and Summit for the fediverse. I especially picked Summit because it is very similar in look, feel, use and features as Relay, which I already really enjoyed using.
There are some really weird emoji though, e.g. what’s are these ones for 🫨🕳️🧱📛💠 I cannot work out what emotion or concept these particular symbols are supposed to indicate.
The only ones I ever really find useful are the hand gestures the facial expressions (although God knows what that first one is supposed to be), and the national flags.
There’s also some Japanese character ones which I assume might be useful if I knew what they said.
The first one there is a shaking emoji. Perhaps it could be used in response to an earthshaking news or something. I’m sure you could run searches of all of these and get the exact text descriptions from the official, global emoji standard.
Lol. I jump between the two so got confused there I see.
Nothing wrong with emojis. But there is something wrong with doing this 😂😂😂😅🤣🤣

Highly agree. 👌👍🖕🤔😑🤭
That’s nearly it.
Some very special cases can occur though where I might use 😱or 🤷.
Otherwise it’s usually just :) or ;). But damn Microsoft for automatically changing them to emojis.
