Textfaces? (͡•_ ͡• ) Regular emoji? 🤔 Old school smileys? :-)
just fyi, Matrix has custom emojis per instance and custom to the user like discord does.
I use what best conveys the emotion behind the text. 🤷🏻♂️
My keyboard has a built in text face keyboard

None and I installed an emoji blocked on firefox.

I am old school :)
ASCII alone already does offer a rather wide range of emotions, no need for unicode. :D

Anyone know if there’s a way to block emojis on iOS?

Hexbear has so many good ones, I’m quite fond of

But I also grew up on Battle.net playing Starcraft, so I often resort to kirbys. t(" t) (> ")> <(^o^)> (g ")–o
Oh damn, I haven’t seen kirbys in text form in ages.
So far I have used exactly one emoji here, and only once so far.

I’m not a big emoji guy overall, but there are certain jokes and such that require inflection in your voice or certain body language to land properly. Obviously that’s not an option in a text basud conversation so emoji fills in that gap for me.
I don’t particularly mind people using emojis in other ways, though I do think using a lot of them gives off a weird vibe, but for me personally I mostly prefer to use my words, and using emojis only sparingly makes them feel like they have more impact to me when I do use them.
