Its just the group we have. I use basic ones sometimes. But I also come from a time before emoji existed.
use your words!
I feel like emoticons are in some ways cheating at using words and thus it shows a lack of effort put into your communication. I use them mostly in quicker format messaging like Discord. I don't blame anyone for using a 𤡠or such but I'd like to try to be more eloquent.

I don't really feel the need to use them to express myself. I try to use words instead :-)

Lemmy is a discussion based social media. Smiley are cool for social medias like facebook

Good question đ¤
And Merry Christmas to all.
We could invert the question: why do people wherever you're contrasting use them more?

People keep asking this....
God damn the kids really don't know the difference. Anyways i use it less probably because I'm browsing Lemmy on my phone in-between other tasks, but maybe I'll start spicing things up.
