    Appreciate the response.

    Hm, who is shunning emojis on Lemmy? Could it be your instance, or the communities you’re visiting?

    No, it’s the impression I’ve gotten throughout the Internet.

    I actually don’t agree with the social prohibition on them. I think we should use them more often, in lieu of being able to see another person’s facial expression.

    But for some its seen as ineffective, for others immature, for others they just don’t like how often they’re used, etc., etc.

    This article from Psychology Today goes into some aspects of what I’m speaking about.

    You said that we’re arguing over such a simple matter

    I wasn’t considering what we were doing as arguing, but just discussing.

    But then again, it might be a glass half full perspective thing with me. 🙂
