Reading comments in different communities, I noticed that users hardly leave smilies. Why is that?

People use words to express their feelings rather than emojis.

Emojis are less serious and a comment that uses them extensively is taken much less seriously than a comment without emojis.

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

I use a phone and the more complicated emojis are harder to use 🤷

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

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.
