    It's "boomer" to use emoji? The fuck?

    Emoji were democratized to unhipness, there was a movie about it and all

      "Boomer" has become a general insult for "out of touch"

      Correct usage is "everyone older than the speaker"

        Why are Lemmy posts and replies (almost?) emoji free? - I like the small emotion symbols, they add a softer human feel to things :]

          Mine too, but only because I saw your username two years ago and cribbed your trick.

            I use them almost exclusively as reactions or to convey tone — and even then, the music notes get used most often, to indicate singing

            since lemmy lacks reactions (beyond voting), I rarely have cause

              I don't use emoji because they're hip, I use them because they have a function. 🤨🤷‍♂️

                  I use regular emojis, occasionally.

                  And I still like "Dongers"! I'll use it if I want!

                        I use the voyager app to browse and it has this little text faces that, imo, are better the emojis.

                                  I miss vBulletin emoticons.

                                  The unicode ones are lame.

                                      I've never been against them globally, just depends on the community theme. They're inappropriate on serious communities I think still.

                                      String four 🤣🤣🤣🤣 together on a debate board and the urge reach through their screen and strangle them like Homer and Bart becomes intense.
