You don’t know know the whole story, and you don’t know Torties. Humans are not consulted in these matters. I’ve lived with five Torties, and never paid for, or even asked for, a single one. There’s a third Tortie in their future, trust me.
Wait, you… didn’t know this wasn’t Reddit, despite all the different instance domains in every person’s comment? Do you use some kind of fusion Reddit+Lemmy app or something? This is really interesting to me, how that was even possible to happen.
I use Relay for Reddit and Summit for the fediverse. I especially picked Summit because it is very similar in look, feel, use and features as Relay, which I already really enjoyed using.
Huh, ironically, I left Summit partly because I found its search system to be too obtuse and it had some pretty bad account-switching problems as well, even though it sure has a lot of capabilities. Theming the apps helps, though ultimately it boils down to reading the domain names of the instances (and usernames) since I’m always curious about the sources of content. I even set Thunder for Lemmy (which also seems to have a very robust draft system in the event of app crashes) to show “@” in front of usernames and “!” in front of communities to drill it home since that formatting is different from Reddit, so I see it all over the place.
If FOSS matters to you, consider Slide for Reddit! Otherwise, Relay looks decent… I’m surprised it was able to get past that API restriction drama that Reddit’s leadership imposed…
There are some really weird emoji though, e.g. what’s are these ones for 🫨🕳️🧱📛💠 I cannot work out what emotion or concept these particular symbols are supposed to indicate.
The only ones I ever really find useful are the hand gestures the facial expressions (although God knows what that first one is supposed to be), and the national flags.
There’s also some Japanese character ones which I assume might be useful if I knew what they said.
The first one there is a shaking emoji. Perhaps it could be used in response to an earthshaking news or something. I’m sure you could run searches of all of these and get the exact text descriptions from the official, global emoji standard.
Haha how cute and adorable to lie to your spouse and betray their trust rather than being an adult and talking to them! 🥰
It’s probably just made up bullshit for internet attention anyway. Either way it’s shitty

Is this the Cat Distribution System?
Sure is. Humans have been trying to control it throughout history, to no avail. The cats are just so much smarter than us.
It’s why cats run the internet.
This is… insane that you’re being downvoted…
This is such a Reddit response. It’s really not that deep
It plays so much into: i’m such a quirky girl and my husband is so dumb, it’s a prime reddit give me gold story
I’m shocked that you’re both expressing the same view, yet have opposite comment scores, haha.
I usually downvotes emojis on Reddit, but this one was needed.
Lol. I jump between the two so got confused there I see.
Nothing wrong with emojis. But there is something wrong with doing this 😂😂😂😅🤣🤣

i don’t read ppls names on this… i could see how you’d assume you were on reddit
Yup. I just
don’tcan’t even notice them. That is way too much effort with ADHD.Ha, fair. I’m always reading usernames (since some of them can be clever), instances, and communities.

Relay payed up. It’s a payed app for users. Shamefully I pay more to Spaz than the Relay dev team.
Summit also has the @ etc in user names etc. but you see ADHD is a hell of a thing and I just
don’tcan’t notice those things when reading comments.Oh and oh. *Paid, by the way (even though I think that’s a unique spelling in English anyway… which is dumb).

Highly agree. 👌👍🖕🤔😑🤭
That’s nearly it.
Some very special cases can occur though where I might use 😱or 🤷.
Otherwise it’s usually just :) or ;). But damn Microsoft for automatically changing them to emojis.

… and then report back to us, lol!
