MODERATORS
i prefer to use them in microblogging platforms like mastodon :3
Its just the group we have. I use basic ones sometimes. But I also come from a time before emoji existed.
Because you don't have no script to easily add emoticons, like for /kbin? ¯_( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)_/¯

God damn the kids really don't know the difference. Anyways i use it less probably because I'm browsing Lemmy on my phone in-between other tasks, but maybe I'll start spicing things up.
