Does anyone still use emoji? Except for ones on forum replies.
I sometimes get an emoji as a one-glyph reply to texts. That's about it.
They were far more popular a decade ago.
Yes. When there is a post awaiting moderator review on one of my sites everyone can see the toilet paper emoji next to the board listing. I also have animated CSS that makes an emoji of a spy pop up behind threads in a couple themes. During Halloween I have an emoji bat emoji fly across the screen and a spider emoji drop down assuming the client does not have animations disabled on their desktop as I respect motion preferences.

It may be silly to some these days and that's fine with me. I enjoy it and I have an odd sense of humor.
