    OpenMoji, Open-source emojis for designers, developers and everyone else!

  4. So on a day when my #company issued #laptop and #GitHub conspired to severely reduce my #throughput, I still managed to open 14 #pullrequests. Small ones but they actually exist.

    As reward, in the hopes that this problem is related to #DNS, I added a bunch of highway/motorway/road 53 images as #custom #emoji in company chat.

  5. 🎼 KlarinettenspielerInnen aller Länder vereinigt euch! Mit der Erweiterung um neue #Emoji-Grafiken (siehe z.B. #Apple #iOS 26.4) kommt ein weiteres #Blasinstrument hinzu – leider nur die Posaune. Neben #Trompete, #Horn, #Flöte und #Saxophon nun also wieder nur #Blech. Die #Königin der Instrumente, die Klarinette, bleibt dagegen erneut außenvor. Ich prangere das an. ✊🏼 🎶

  6. #Emacs: Has anybody a clue why I can't find 🕵️‍♂️ (male-detective; man-detective as of emojiace.com/man-detective ) via "C-x 8 RET"?

    I was puzzled not to be able to play around with it while reading the awesome article of rahuljuliato.com/posts/unicode

    Edit: I found it via: M-x emoji-insert (C-x 8 e i): People → Role → y

    I'd prefer to also find it via C-x 8 RET (search) though.

    Edit 2: graz.social/@[email protected]/115841 suggests that composed emojis aren't available for "C-x 8 RET". 😔 However, the linked article above explains how to compose it yourself from "SLEUTH OR SPY" (🕵️) and "MALE SIGN" (♂).

  8. The white Republican Mormon governor of Utah was reading a furry OwO meme on national television yesterday and the poor bastard was completely clueless. And everybody in law enforcement and media and the press who thinks they do understand OwO actually thinks it's the same as UwU. I had no choice, I had to do a meme explainer.

  9. Just discovered this up-to-date fork from Twemoji 💯

    ✅ It is updated with Unicode 16.0.1 since Twitter stopped maintaining the original repo.

  10. Hi all!

    If you're wondering why some #emojis like the #VerificationBadges or the #LGBTFlags have turned into :sillytextslikethis: —Yep, it's because of my fault. :amiga:

    Sorry. :heartbreak:

    I have shortened all the #VerifiedBadges and several of the #LGBTQ / #LGBTQI / #LGBTQIA / #LGBTQIAplus #emoji. Now it's easier to add them next to your display name. Some other emoji has been shortened as well. I promise not to overwrite them again.

    [Yeah, sure… :YouTried: ]

    This bit in particular has bugged my aesthetic and semiotic sensibilities a bit.

    To my way of thinking:

    😋 - It is difficult for me to see this as anything other than an expression of enthusiasm for food. In contrast:

    :p or :P - I imagine these as an off-center pet "blep" or "poo brain" face (see attachments). In my mind this represents concepts like "my thinking is a bit misguided here" or "I'm a silly little guy". Similar to how I use🙃. But:
    1/2

  12. Un interessante articolo di #storia dell'informatica: le #emoji probabilmente sono antecedenti rispetto a quelle introdotte dagli operatori mobili giapponesi nel 1999. Inoltre la parola non deriva da #emoticon.

  13. @jeremyburge @gingerbeardman

    Not that anyone cares, but I developed and shipped my La Jolla, CA company Coconut Computing's COCONET software in 1988, with what I called "Emoticons" but were, in hindsight, very early #emoji. Even included an #Emoticon Picker that let you select which one to insert into your message. That alone would be worth billions in patent income for years afterwards to some company that didn't know about my prior art. (Or maybe they did?) Had only *I* known! :-/

  14. There are at least 3K emojis in all popular emoji fonts and we still don't have this! When?

    #emoji #twitter #twemoji #unicode #utf8 #font

  15. @evanwolf These #emoji have meaning for me, are part of my social vocabulary. (Glad to provide translations if anyone cares.)

    But this list is specific to me and my tribe.

    It would be enormous fun to have additional #emoticon sets to freely, easily and safely share and trade. If you don't have a set, you see the text. If you do, you see the art. Inherently viral, social, meaningful. @Mastodon future social feature?

    Kanada: Vertrag mit 👍 geschlossen und nicht erfüllt – 56.000 Euro Schadenersatz

    In Kanada muss ein Landwirt 56.000 Euro Schadenersatz zahlen, weil er einen Kaufvertrag nicht erfüllt hat. Dessen Erhalt hatte er lediglich mit 👍 quittiert.

  18. If you are using #Twemoji #CDN be sure to update your 'base' to: cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/jdecked/tw

    Like so:

    base: 'cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/jdecked/tw'

    Also, the new official repo is: github.com/jdecked/twemoji/

    The Twemoji #MaxCDN source died a few days ago. The original developers left #Twitter and did a community fork recently. It is now using #jsDelivr CDN by default. (see new official repo mentioned earlier)

    @husku on tehnyt #EliitinSome laisten käyttöön #MikkoKärnä -emojin, eikä kukaan muu millään muulla instanssilla voi sitä käyttää!

    Minä, minä olen toisella minälläni siellä Eliitin-Somessa, ja voisin siis käyttää sitä, MUTTA kuulun siihen ihmiseläinlajin minisculen pieneen vähemmistöön, joka ei käytä hyniöitä!

  20. This is probably old news but I recently saw someone using their hijab to turn their smartphone into a hands-free-headset. Such a cool move, I love that so much I had to draw it! ^__^

  21. here's are finished #anarchist and #vegan flags in #twemoji style.

    commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Use

    the diagonals of the anarchist are a jaggy, because they are made with gradients. i thought antialiasing would take care of that 🤷. chances are i'll redo them, shouldn't be much hassle…

  22. CW: twitter decentralization, in the news

    @darius
    Interesting... had anyone made a list?

    We recently stumbled across their #Twemoji (Twitter #emoji) project, which is picked up by #Mozilla. The twemoji even appear in #Tor #Browser! Not even #FontAwesome works over Tor.

    Twitter do some pretty cool #openSource stuff - despite the fact we care little about #twitter as a platform.

    This new project of theirs may result in nothing - but it could be substantial.
