It's silly when apple users do actions against text messages.

@variablepulserate Apple users get to "react" to others' messages. If they react to someone who doesn't have an iPhone, the react looks like..
Laughed at "Hey it's at 4:00 btw"
Laughed at "Scroll up?"

All of a sudden you're chatting with a computer.

@33MHz Fair point. Apple shouldn’t be mucking up common standards. I also wish emojis had never been invented. :-)

@variablepulserate I struggle with tiny emoji but I dislike animated GIFs much more than emoji. @33MHz

@joanna With emojis being different on different platforms it can lead to confusion.

@variablepulserate Yeah. A couple of days ago someone on a Zoom call talked about a skull emoji in the chat. It looked like a shopping cart on my system (which was what the original poster intended).

@33MHz The iOS Lock Screen (ChimPnut) notification for this showed a skull...but inside ChimPnut it showed a question mark inside a rectangle. Arachis shows the skull.

@variablepulserate I'm still on iOS 13 and can see the skull in Arachis but not Chimpnut. Weird! I see the skull on MacOS via Apero. Huh. @33MHz

@variablepulserate I don't mind the concept of emojis, but I really wish they were grayscale or two-tone only.

@33MHz They do look out of place amongst type.
