Re: Emojis
by Shaye
Hey, Ken!

It’s about the way the emojis are coded and how browsers display that. And also the fact handles are also likely different in how they’re stored and re-displayed each time in plain text.

It’s your individual set-up that decides what it will then look like once you load a page. For example, I’m on Edge on an iPhone and the moon in your handle is yellow and has a face, the same as the one in the post.

On a system that doesn’t support that, I imagine you’re seeing a black Unicode moon? For browsers/systems that truly don’t support it, they’ll just get a black square. It’s why I personally don’t use non-WdC emojis - it can vary widely how different people actually see it.
