fubo@lemmy.world · 61 pts · 2y
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.
wild@lemmy.world · 30 pts · 2y
I just assumed these would be, you know, emoji-sized emojis.
fubo@lemmy.world · 10 pts · 2y
I'm just going by what shows up in the thread here.
kamenlady@lemmy.world · 12 pts · 2y
Good practice would be to globally limit the max-width of an emoji to something like 100px anyway. When clicked, the full image opens.
qaz@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 2y
These are embedded images they are larger.
lud@lemm.ee · 8 pts · 2y
I think hexbear emojis are small on their instance but they are gigantic on every other instance. That might be the case here too. As a non world member I don't wish to see giant images.
mindgoblin7@lemmy.world · 12 pts · 2y
oh, i guess i just figured they would just be emoji sized
LackingC10H12N2O@lemmy.world · 12 pts · 2y
Yeah I'd have to agree with limits on the size.

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:

saltesc@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 2y
A quick emoji can easily shift tone of text or be in place of a text action. But in general, one of my internet rules is; the more someone uses emojis, the dumber they are. Whether that be taking all the additional time to make themselves unintelligible, or trail their comment with two, three, or nineteen emojis, half of which are rofl faces ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐๐๐๐คช๐ซณ๐คโ๏ธ๐ช

Emojis are a good way to try and mitigate the ubiquitous assumption of context that happens on text based forums.
Which is to say they've got a little upwards curve in indicating intelligence at the beginning prior to the plummet into dumpster fire territory you're associating them with... and I don't actually disagree with that, just a friendly addendum ;)
AusatKeyboardPremi@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 2y
Is this about the new account highlightenator thingy that shows a ๐ถ next to new accounts?

They work on the website and are probably not supported by all apps. But Safari should work fine.
There's also an issue in Lemmy currently with custom emoji's. I see there's a problem report on github that was closed, so I hope it will be solved in v0.19 which should be right around the corner.

The comment you originally replied to in this thread (two comments up I think) has popcorn and facepalm shown as emojis (the facepalm is not Picard though...it's apple/google/etc.), the rest are text.
