I’m a heavy emoji user, texting is such a poor medium for communication, many times people get the wrong message, but with an emoji you’ll get an idea of the face I’m making, so less chance of misunderstanding
I noticed that every time I add an emoji to a comment it gets downvoted, so I tested my theory, wrote a comment without an emoji, got upvotes, went back and added an emoji, got downvotes…
On Reddit people use emojis a lot, on Lemmy I NEVER saw anyone use emojis, my account is new but still for the time I spent here, I never saw the use of emojis
So, is it just me, have you noticed this small detail ? and do you miss emojis the way I do ? 😭
It’s annoying if someone sends only a single emoji like 😂. Like I don’t need your reaction I need your WORDS OF WISDOM (discussion). Especially on a public forum.

On reddit bots used to use that one a lot.
Yeah I see a comment like that or just “lol” as something that should have just been an upvote. And then because I’m cynical, I also assume they didn’t upvote.
