Hello World,

Nothing as exciting as emojis, right? We would like to make it easier for you to express yourselves, so we'll be adding custom emojis to Lemmy.World. The question is, which ones? Let's pick together!

So, we're reaching out to everyone with a Lemmy.World account: Please provide a link to the image you'd like to suggest and upvote the ones you'd like to see! The most upvoted emoji's will, after review, be added to our list of custom emojis.

The emojis can be used by anyone on Lemmy.World in comments and posts.

If we're having thonk, we need angery.

lemmy silver

I hope I got the stroke weight right.

[โ€“] Aleric@lemmy.world 61 points 1 year ago

I love me some gull scream. It's basically how I feel every day.

Ahem. I am not a fan of encouraging people to post giant low-content images in Lemmy threads. It is really nice to have a mostly textual medium, and inserting huge Pikachus or Picards or Frys into it is not an improvement to this user experience. Many of the images in this thread appear at around โ…“ of screen height in the default browser UI, and they have very little new to say.

If this sort of feature has to exist, please consider limiting it to rather small images, more in the "icon" range than the "memegens" range.

I just assumed these would be, you know, emoji-sized emojis.

For discussions on economics.

I like this reactionary picture as an emoji.

I absolutely need this dog as an emoji

[โ€“] owatnext@lemmy.world 26 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Bandit from the kids' show Bluey looking concerned.

Alternatively, a higher quality version:

Bandit from the kids' show Bluey looking concerned.

This is giving me ideas for community-centric emotes.

Can we turn them off? I'm almost 40 and really couldn't give a flying fuck about emoji spam. I'm already about to ditch Voyager for putting emoji's on my app interface.

The last thing I think lemmy needs is another way for belligerent idiots to say something without saying anything. They do enough of that with words.

99% of emoticon responses:

I would throw a fake "image not found" one in just to fuck with people.

[โ€“] Sterile_Technique@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

We've got quite a few artsy types here - if we provide some parameters, I'm sure we could get some custom Lemmy emojis whipped up like overnight.
