    I’m fascinated that lemmygrad users can communicate with so few emojis

        Hexbear reinventing pictographic language.

        When I proposed adding :kijetesantakalu: as an emoji, that was supposed to be the first step to adding all of sitelen pona as emojis, thereby fulfilling this prophecy

      The historical reason is that Hexbear implemented emojis before Lemmy did. Lemmy ended up supporting emojis only when Hexbear merged with Lemmy recently. A bunch of our own emojis are cribbed from Hexbear.

      Hexbearians need to bring freedom and democracy (emojis) to the poor oppressed people of lemmygrad.

      How can I tell if someone likes or dislikes me without a Stalin heart or PPB emoji?

      I’m lost.

      Well Jerboa doesn’t even give me the option to see them when typing a comment.
