I don't care either way, but I always thought it was funny how reddit was so vehemently anti-emoji

Do what you want, if someone gets overly excessive I can just downvote or block them.

I was a light redditor and had no idea this was a thing, interesting

I remember seeing it around a few years ago, not as much anymore. It was always wild seeing a pretty innocent comment getting bombed into oblivion just for using one emoji.

I use smileys (and I used them back on reddit too). But i wish the webapp had emoji aliasing built in! :smile:

I have no idea how to type emojis on my windows laptop lol. so whenever I use them I gotta copy+paste. On discord they have shortcodes for them :emojiname: and on twitter there's an emoji picker. no idea how to do it elsewhere...

To do it on Windows there's a key combo you need to press to pull up the emoji keyboard. Press the Windows key and the period key at the same time while youre typing in Windows 10 and 11. This will pull up the emoji keyboard.

I'm not a fan of emojis. They tend not to contribute anything to the discussion and make your reply appear childish in the same was as adding 'lol' as a prefix to your message.
