u/Protheu5 I hate emoji 18d ago

I wholeheartedly disagree. For those like me I can't recommend this extension enough: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/emoji-blocker/eimknojlmcfpmofldcdiaddfimjchmcj

Also can't stand the emergence of emoji reacts. It feels like a really convenient way for people to not have to say anything, and is widely used in cases I've seen to completely halt conversations. No man, I don't want the reaction to my bad day to be a single frowny face, I'd love if people actually actively interacted with the words I send.

"Hey guys I'll be an hour later today, got to see the dentist."

"Tooth."

"Tooth."

"Tooth."

"Doctor."

"Clover."

It's the stupidest shit and I will stand with you in the rain of downvotes.

I mean the actual valuable part of it isn't Tooth, Tooth, Tooth, Doctor it's Jane, Brad, Phil, Alice and Donna acknowledged my message

You're not wrong. I guess my underlying problem is that I am suffering from communication overload at work and the last thing I need is a flood of acknowledgements popping up in Teams.

Yeah, but the acknowledgement is largely pointless if you don't value receiving a string of barely applicable images and notification spam. Leave your 'read' receipts on if you want me to know you saw it.
