Love installing multiple gigabyte flatpaks of what would be 15mb exe files on Windows. I've enjoyed using Mint so far but there are definitely some things that suck, this is one of them

GNOME's "Characters" takes up 3.6 MB, install that one instead

There are other emoji-picker software out there. Some even work in the terminal. fzf fuzzy finder with a list of emoji as input works as well.

Going to check this out the next time I boot to Linux

Checkout Smile too. GNOME characters is more of a Unicode character finder than an emoji picker.
