This airtable of proposed, rejected, and accepted new emojis is awesome.

Very cool. I geek out over symbols.
So much so, that I signed up to the Unicode Consortium awhile back.
So now I get a preview of the new emojis released each year.
Coming soon to your mobile keyboard: ‘face with bags under eyes’, ‘splatter’, ‘shovel’, and ‘harp’.
Seems on point for 2024. 😱
I would kind of geek out if you wrote articles on Nostr about why this or that emoji failed. There are some cute ones and they were denied.
The ‘Emoji Standard & Research Working Group’ receives the submissions, and there is a guideline they use. But noted, will look to write a little more on it. I know that there was a petition to submit Bitcoin as an emoji this year, but cannot find it in the submissions. Will look into it. 🙂
