If you're on Windows, press the Windows key and the period key to get the emoji keyboard.
Windows also lets you right click for emojis
Is that a Windows 11 thing? I don’t have that on Windows 10 Pro or Enterprise.
I only have Windows 10
Hmm, curious! Does it work everywhere? Like, in Word or Excel or whatnot? I have never seen that feature!
oh I don't know, I don't really use word or excel anymore. I've only seen it work in Chrome cause I'm a filthy Chrome user.
Aha! I reckon it’s a Chrome feature, then—I haven’t used that!
big fan of the old school blob emoji with cat ears
Emojis like these are built in... 😺 🙀 😻 🐈
Not quite the same, but you can just type :cat and it pops up a quick list.
I gratuitously use cat emoji don't worry. It's not the same without blobby though.
Haha fair enough!

Personally, I'm OK with emoji as long as you don't spam them (3+ times the same emoji is spamming imo)
1 emoji for a normal expression
2 emoji for a heavy expression
3 emoji is still acceptable but my personal limit of tolerance
I've always read 3+ back to back as a form of satire or sarcasm
I mainly encountered boomers when reading more than 3 emoji
I really like and
Also all of the agony ones
I like the cowboy one.
It's like I'm suffering but in a lil hat.
All of the above.
I resisted using emojis for a long time, but I changed jobs during Covid and was working from home permanently. I suddenly worked with a bunch of people I had never met before, and I realized that these people don't know my demeanor, so they don't know how to read my tone. I found emojis are almost necessary to convey tone in this situation. And after that, it kinda stuck.
Finally, an emoji that's worth being that big
3 emojis that complete a thought like:
🛩️💥🥂
General Pringles?
SHOIGU!!!!
Celebrating a plane explosion?
I miss my favorite hot dog vendor 😞🌻
I'm a fan of emojis that I can hear.
Regular emoji is just easier. But I do have a keyboard shortcut for the ¯\(ツ)/¯ which is my main textface, if annoying to edit his arm back in
I wouldn't use those if Lemmy apps didn't have them inbuilt ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ
None and I installed an emoji blocked on firefox.

I read somewhere that proper emojis are more accessible for screen readers, so I've avoided using the old style smiley versions and textmojis ever since.
what are proper emojis?
😃
This is "proper": 😀
This is "old-timey": :D
good to know! 🤩
I am old school :)
ASCII alone already does offer a rather wide range of emotions, no need for unicode. :D
🫨
My usage is fairly restricted:
old school :^) for non-sarcastic irony
(¬¬) for eye rolling
shorthand emojis (e.g. if talking about Stardew Valley, instead of "the four hearts event" I might type "the 4♥ event")
as a way to avoid a specific word for metalinguistic reasons (e.g. "⟨dog⟩ is the signifier, 🐶 is the signified")
Old school smileys :-) because My Keyboard app doesn't have a emoji board.
I like the classic ಠᴗಠ text faces
🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️
My keyboard has a built in text face keyboard

I don't use them on Lemmy, nobody else really does so it seems out of place. If I'm talking to one of my friends, it's a different story.
:) all day
The only one I use super frequently is :3 which I imagine isn't a surprise to anyone lol
Hexbear has so many good ones, I'm quite fond of &
But I also grew up on Battle.net playing Starcraft, so I often resort to kirbys. t(" t) (> ")> <(^o^)> (g ")--o
Oh damn, I haven't seen kirbys in text form in ages.
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.
I only use them in games, but these:
xD
:D

Whatever suits the point. Emojis are a tool for communication, and should not be shunned just because some butterflies just them as personal flair. Emoticons are classic and hearken back to an earlier time, when things were bespoke and not run through committees for approval before we're allowed to use them. ᕦ⊙෴⊙ᕤ
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.
No
All of them

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.
They're called Kaomoji btw.
