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.

      I believe that there’s an inverse relationship between number of consecutive emoji and ability to hold a conversation. Doubly so if it’s four clowns.
