You are not wrong Stux.
That kind of asking is almost threat like.
We go with what a platform provides and whatever improvements we get.
We can ask, nicely.
Upto admins, what can be provided and as per resources.
What I needed was bookmark and I got it on mastodon.social.

You are absolutely right.

Just make a tutorial on how to make emojis or if its available online put up a link for it on a pinned toot.

Don’t spoon feed the community.

Tomorrow they will ask you to wash their clothes and change their diapers aslo 😅

(But can non admins even make emojis?)

@KnottedBow

@Full_marx That's the 'problem'. Only admins can add custom emoji and for good reasons 😉

If we get too many the loading time will be huge on the emoji picker.. And we don't want any racist emoji and such.. 🙂

@KnottedBow

@stux this is true atleast on mstdn.io with large collection of animated emojis. Who doesn't want to have loads of emoji options, but loading them and refreshing them is crazy long. There has to be better caching ttl instructions of sorts from server to client. @Full_marx @KnottedBow

@Full_marx I also had that idea for a perk on Patreon or something but then I'll create a barrier I'm afraid between paying and non-paying users and I don't want that 😉 @KnottedBow

@stux @Full_marx@qoto.org @KnottedBow now if that's not equality and fairness then what is ?👏👏👏👏👏

@stux @KnottedBow

Yup.

Hammer and Sickles Everywhere.

The platform is open to everyone and its usage doesn’t depend on wether or not you’re paying or non paying.

It is a fair system.

But an emoji is a perk. Having it or not having it doesn’t affect the way you can use the system. It doesn’t affect free speech.

All it does is burden you and create stress.

Hammer and sickle systems fail eventually.

Your efforts have a price, please demand it.

@Full_marx Ah man! That's so nicely said.. Now I'm going to rethink it..! ❤️
