Textfaces? (͡•_ ͡• ) Regular emoji? 🤔 Old school smileys? :-)

I use what best conveys the emotion behind the text. 🤷🏻‍♂️

just fyi, Matrix has custom emojis per instance and custom to the user like discord does.

I generally don't use emojis because I don't think I understand the nuances of emoji well enough to throw them out there for strangers on the internet to interpret.

None, I never use emojis 🙅

[–] Fondots@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

So far I have used exactly one emoji here, and only once so far.

😉

I'm not a big emoji guy overall, but there are certain jokes and such that require inflection in your voice or certain body language to land properly. Obviously that's not an option in a text basud conversation so emoji fills in that gap for me.

I don't particularly mind people using emojis in other ways, though I do think using a lot of them gives off a weird vibe, but for me personally I mostly prefer to use my words, and using emojis only sparingly makes them feel like they have more impact to me when I do use them.

Anyone know if there’s a way to block emojis on iOS?
