Ok, the title was an overuse of emojis as a joke. But seriously, I like some limited use of emojis because it helps me convey intention/emotion so that I’m less misunderstood and also adds some more feeling/fun to text content 😄

I grew up with forums where emoticons were substituted with smiley images (on badly coded ones, “8)” turned into “😎” even when it was just a parenthetical ending with the number 8 or the eighth point in a bullet point list). I use emoji approximately when I would have used those smileys, it is a good thing they’re now standardized, but other than that I find them unnecessary and distracting.
