Never seen anybody using emoji in any community. I did use once or twice, but the way its absent over here, I’m starting to think its part of some implicit rules lemmy has

    They’re helpful in providing the proper context to a text-based convo

    Nope just annoying.

    IRL, you’d just see my face and body language and hear my tone

    The best part of anonymous forums is not having any tone.

      Oh my god man get a grip, everyone has a tone over writing, like how yours right now is rude.

      Using emojis just communicates more informality plus whatever the emoji communicates. It’s not annoying to most people, and it shouldn’t be to you
