I don't care either way, but I always thought it was funny how reddit was so vehemently anti-emoji

Yes, but only the most obscure ones: ๐Ÿงต๐Ÿฅฝ๐Ÿฆ”

All the random boxes with characters in them: ๐Ÿšพ๐Ÿˆณ๐Ÿ›…๐Ÿ›‚๐Ÿšผโšง๏ธ๐Ÿ›—๐Ÿ’นโœณ๏ธ๐Ÿˆฏ๏ธ๐Ÿ”ฃ๐Ÿšฎ๐Ÿ“ถ๐Ÿˆโคต๏ธ๐Ÿ†“๐Ÿ†–๐Ÿˆน๐Ÿ“ดโš›๏ธ๐Ÿˆš๏ธ๐Ÿˆฒ๐Ÿ†˜๐Ÿ†‘โ™‹๏ธโ˜ธ๏ธโœก๏ธ๐Ÿ•‰๏ธ๐Ÿ†š

Why do they exist?

For signage and i think those kinds of emojis see more use in places like Japan and China hence a lot of them also including their characters too.
