Emojis and Lemmy
-
Why are Lemmy posts and replies (almost?) emoji free? - I like the small emotion symbols, they add a softer human feel to things :]
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. -
Lemmy is full of boring old farts.
I’m a girl and I use emojis and abbreviations on here. Idgaf!

And yet here you are. On a reddit clone.

Well yeah, overreacting is pretty cringe-inducing, I agree. But not the use of emoji as a concept, IMO. I think conveying emotion or intent or tone using them is good for communication in general. Makes things more personal and clear.
Right - but that is generally how I see them used here already. More emoji would bring things up to boomer level.

I mostly use emojis as either a quick reaction or as a way of acknowledging that I read something someone I know sent me. They make a lot less sense in places like Reddit or Lemmy, where interaction is more impersonal and commenting doesn't feel worth it unless you have something substantial to say.

The voyager app for lemmy has a selection of them for you to quick access.
