Another thing I like about 's custom emoji reactions is that I can get the gist of what a post written in a language I do not understand is saying via the reactions being given by the cool people of misskey.io. So even if is not giving me translations that don't make sense, I can tell for example that @syuilo is hungry from the numerous pizza emojis being given ​:blobcatnompizza:​ and give a "​:yuyuko_corndog:​" ​:koakuma_giggle:​

So thanks for Misskey and ! ​:cirno_thumbs_up:​

'Too many cats, not enough crustaceans: The current emoji catalog doesn't accurately represent the breadth of biodiversity seen in nature -- and that hurts conservation efforts, according to scientists. An analysis published Monday in the journal iScience found that while animals are well represented by the current emoji catalog, plants, fungi, and microorganisms get short shrift.'

Der freischaffende Künstler Harvey Ball braucht nicht sehr lange für das fröhliche Symbol. Er zeichnet einen Kreis, malt ihn gelb aus und setzt zwei Punkte, die Augen, und einen Halbkreis, den Mund, hinein. Zehn Minuten später ist der Smiley geboren. 🙂

Attention Citizens:

To maximize efficiency and keep up with modern culture, you are now encouraged to communicate exclusively in emojis.
Express the intricacies of your utopian life through smiley faces, thumbs up, and the occasional XD.
Words are sooooo last century.

Remember: Happiness is mandatory. Sad and/or angry emojis are treasonous.

Thank you for your pictorial eloquence.

Do you want to get away from using icon fonts? I did.

I wrote a post (and a few pens on CodePen) showing three different ways to use emojis and custom “emoji-like” images as list markers.

One of these days, I'm gonna get good at doing the Emoji stuff on my phone. I just, like, why would some one spend seconds going to a whole new keyboard, and fidning an Emoji in that big long list, or hitting a search box and typing what they're looking for? Like I feel like it'd take me a long time. I do kinda wish there was a way to just do that quickly in Braille, like hit a command and type "smile" in Braille, hit Enter, and "arrow" through results, kinda like the app search on the home screen we have now.

Le Dessous des images est une excellent émission mais en plus aujourd’hui, on parle d’emoji !
Qui les crée, quels sont les enjeux etc

C’est un format court donc ils peuvent pas parler de tout mais j’aurai bien aimé des plateformes qui comme Fedi, permettent d’uploader ses propres emojis

I noticed this when my offered me 🧚‍♀️ when typing in "tit". By trial and error I got to "titania". Still no clue what the correct prompt for this emoji is?

jindra, to NoStupidQuestions

anyone has any recommendations for an emoji keyboard on Linux?

Basically I wanna be able to input emoji into any program I want, but I find it hard, so I'd like to know how to do that efficiently.

Does anyone have a good solution for typing emojis in any random box on ? Right now I’ve got compose key shortcuts set up for a few of them, but I have to remember which ones I’ve defined, and that doesn’t exactly scale. Ideally I’d be able to define a hotkey that would bring up a little search box that I can type in “tada” for 🎉 and “flamingo” for 🦩.

Ok, I think the emoji choice is settled. This was a very important design decision.

👁️ short note on emoji text alternative variations

"Unicode symbols do not have inbuilt text alternatives. They are exposed in the browser accessibility tree as a text symbol"

Oh please @libreoffice PLEASE fix the bug that makes emojis disappear when exporting or printing to PDF 😩

For how many years (decades?) has this existed now?

Can't just be me, same problem across distros for me.

(Of course, I highly value your work maintaining an open source office suite, but this one really hits hard every time 🥲)
