Never seen anybody using emoji in any community. I did use once or twice, but the way its absent over here, I’m starting to think its part of some implicit rules lemmy has
i just try to write fast so i dont have time to use emoji’s
Depends.
I rather use these: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

My whole username is emoji. And I’m everywhere.
I see Lemmy as an older crowd that prefers ASCII emotes. Although the do work in some situations.
My “I’m being kidnapped, send help” secret code is “I start using emoji”
I think they’re annoying to look at and I have never felt the need to use them to communicate. I think that people who use a lot of emojis are usually stupid.

Emojis remind me of LLM slop
God I hate the emojis used as bullet points trend so much, it looks so tacky and is the biggest immediate sign of a vibecoded slop project

Lemmy seems to skew older and they don’t like emojis because it’s stupid/unprofessional/w/e

Probably all the lead poison
Probably all the lead poison
jfc skew older doesn’t mean a preponderance of boomers. you do realize they cut lead out of fuel in the 70s right?
And? All the lead released, in paints on the walls/on toys, etc still had a lasting impact on Gen X, also the 70s was 50 years ago lol.
you know people can be stupid without lead? look in the mirror.
Good one
Emojis are for people who don’t know how to read/write the local language. No exceptions. That includes ‘native speakers’ of the language who use them. Emoji are a sign of illiteracy and people who use them were failed by their education.
Okay thats far😑
Check my post history, I guess. 😅
They’re helpful in providing the proper context to a text-based convo. IRL, you’d just see my face and body language and hear my tone and understand things better so we have to adjust when texting. This is why people feel like they need the “/s” for sarcasm and whatnot. 👍

Nope just annoying.

The best part of anonymous forums is not having any tone.
Oh my god man get a grip, everyone has a tone over writing, like how yours right now is rude.
Using emojis just communicates more informality plus whatever the emoji communicates. It’s not annoying to most people, and it shouldn’t be to you
