If you have something to say, actually explain it instead of the obnoxious emoji spam.
removed by mod
It’s completely off-topic, but you know 4chan filters? Like, replacing “fam” with “senpai” and stuff like this?
So. It would be damn great if Lemmy had something similar. Except that it would replace emojis, “lol” and “lmao” with “I’m braindead.”
That would be amazing.
That extension is fun, but it doesn’t “gently shame” the person spamming emojis by replacing their emojis with “I’m braindead” in a way that themself would see.
How do I edit someone else’s post
Contrariwise to your blatant assumption, I’m not proposing a system where users can edit each others’ posts. I’m just toying with the idea of word filters, not too different from the ones that already exist for slurs in Lemmy.
For example. If you write [insert slur here], it gets replaced with removed. What if it replaced emojis with “I’m braindead.”? That’s it.
(Before yet another assumer starts doing its shit: the idea is not too serious.)
Aren’t they effective when used sparingly 😕
They would be less obnoxious if used sparingly, but they wouldn’t be effective unless the reason why they’re used changed, from graphical echo (“I saw a cat today 🐱”) and mood/attitude particles (like you did) to ideographic usage (e.g. “I saw a 🐱 today”). Plus they’re still colourful and attention-grabbing drawings within text, they detract attention from the text itself.
A lot of post-September 1993 internet users wouldn’t understand, I get it.
post-September 1993
you’re talking nonsense, for all I know today is Wed 11124 set 1993
I’ve just converted to polytheism and have begun praying to the Emoji God asking them to use 1,000 origami cry laughing Emojis to smite you down, so that you may die how you lived.
I hope it won’t be quick, or painless, but that’s up to the Gods now.

Considering that we’re talking about emojis, it’ll definitely be silent.
Silent, but deadly.
