Antisocial people.

It was the same on Reddit. All of the people who despised emojis were often posting in really cringe and incel related subs.

My use of emojis sky rocketed after I started dating. They are fun and convey emotion really well.

I'm convinced emojis are what has been missing from language for a long time. They are great way to portray emotions through texts, which otherwise could not be achieved.

This way there is a difference between:

"You are so amazing ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‘"

and

"You are so amazing ๐Ÿ™„ "

"You are so amazing ๐Ÿ™„ "

Greatest put down ever.
