I'm not good at this either. For me, any small image that can be added at the end of a text is a emoticon.

That's an interesting question. Many other emoticons in the standard set are just as questionable. It is especially interesting to find out who came up with this set and decided that this number of emoticons and their varieties is what the user needs.

As for the fact that the mobile emoji set looks too small for desktop pc, perhaps Lemmy should make her own emoji set?

Emotional Italians will disagree with you.

Perhaps this impression is due to the fact that young social media users have devalued these images. You may have seen short messages in various communities consisting of many emoticons. Perhaps the sequence of images means something, but is perceived as spam.

I didn't realise the meaning of emoticons could change. Now I'm thinking 'what if the cat image I put at the end of the text means something bad?' 😾

There is a tab with emoticons in the text input field of Lemmy's posts. At least in the mobile version of the site.

Hmm... Then wouldn't it be logical on the part of mobile OS developers to make the extended set of emoticons hidden by default and enabled through system settings? Or make an extended set of smileys as an app that can be installed through the app directory?

о_о The point of this sabreddit is to send each other kaomoji without meaningful text?

The day will come when people from other social networks will go to Lemmy to find something interesting.

Such an emoji can be sent to a customer when all deadlines have passed.

Wow, I didn't know that. You don't know the reason?

Nostalgia. I had a set of kaomoji stored in a text file.

What if you tried to express your emotional attitude to the person you are talking to? Or try to describe how you feel when you have had a good day.

I don't always do it well in text messages and then I use emoticons to reflect emotion.

I have a negative attitude to standard emoticons built into Android and iOS. They don’t look good, they’re too many.

I'm interested to know who uses emoticons depicting, for example, player rewind icons or rectangular shapes. Are there people who use these emoticons at least once a year?

Oh noo 😱

I think it's the same as trying to give a sailboat acceleration by trying to blow the sails while standing on deck.

Dread to stroke such a cat

Did the kind owner leave some food for fluffy?

Thanks for the screenshot. I don't have a working laptop right now to check how Lemmy works on PC. I didn't realise that the display of media in the mobile and desktop version could be different. Probably because some people don't use the mobile version there is a misunderstanding and they don't understand what we are talking about.

However, the problem with displaying videos in the mobile version has been around for a long time. Also, after clicking on the dark square that is displayed instead of the preview, you are prompted to open the video in a new tab as if you were opening another site.

YouTube previews are displayed normally. I suppose this problem occurs only with direct links, example www.site.com/827474/mycats.mp4

As you saw in the screenshots, for the test I used direct links to videos uploaded to reddit and the x0.at service.

I did the test in two different browsers and in two different instances. I've also read in the comments under various video posts that other people are also discovering this problem.
