Textfaces? (͡•_ ͡• ) Regular emoji? 🤔 Old school smileys? :-)
None and I installed an emoji blocked on firefox.

Do you copy and paste every time you use text emojis with specail characters? Do you have them saved on your phone/computer for easy access?
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.
Voyager has some of these built in now
Oh shit I learned something new today. Thanks OP!
I use Gboard which has them in the emoji menu: ʘ‿ʘ ᕙ(@°▽°@)ᕗ (゜o゜; (^3^♪ ¯\_( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)_/¯ (┛◉Д◉)┛彡┻━┻ ಠ︵ಠ ╏ ” ⊚ ͟ʖ ⊚ ” ╏ →(° °)┗

Thanks for the tip! ♪ \(ω\ )

Sync has a ton built in, so just a button click.

I use what best conveys the emotion behind the text. 🤷🏻♂️

I miss my forum emoticons.
OwO
For some emotions there isn’t even an emoji yet.
UwU
And let’s hope there never is.
I only use them in games, but these:

Oh damn, I haven’t seen kirbys in text form in ages.
Didn’t know that, thanks :)
A few of those actually use emojis in the kaomoji
3==D
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.
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 do not use emojis.

I think the “regular” emoji feel somewhat out of place here
Why would anyone need to express emotions in a universal language?
🙄
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
this one. only this one:

We do a little
posting
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”)
