This is totally random but several years ago an acquaintance in China remarked that she absolutely hated the following emoji -> πŸ™‚

To be precise it was the version on Weibo iirc, but the sentiment was the same - it looks like a fake smile - insincere - almost condescending.

I didn't really get it at the time but the more I see people use πŸ™‚ the more I tend to agree, especially when there are so many better alternatives, like 😁 , 😊 , πŸ˜ƒ and 😺 .

Anyone else bothered by πŸ™‚ or is it just me? πŸ€“

nostr:npub1vqmh8edfflrlcf4ly39cdeqg7lqg6wrphew6mk52zp23wmyzywsslgccpx A few years back, I was using this emoji πŸ€— heaps as a cheeky shrug, to say β€œhah, what can ya do?” or β€œor gee, how about that”… then I found out it’s called the β€œhug” emoji, and I’d actually been hugging everyone for months. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ
