Why are Lemmy posts and replies (almost?) emoji free? - I like the small emotion symbols, they add a softer human feel to things :]

Because they make you seem like an AI or spammer or a boomer.
It’s “boomer” to use emoji? The fuck?
The stupid Facebook posts with an over sized 🤣 about a mild joke.
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.
😂😂😂🤣 so true
I hate you. Have an upvote.
Emoji were democratized to unhipness, there was a movie about it and all
I don’t use emoji because they’re hip, I use them because they have a function. 🤨🤷♂️
Why a boomer of all things? O.O
“Boomer” has become a general insult for “out of touch”
Correct usage is “everyone older than the speaker”
