You know, what would be revolutionary?

If we could apply our own colors to text symbols. Similar to how there’s different skin colors for emojis, but you could set any color.

I know what you’re saying, we’d need to come up with a whole system for having colors in texts, that’s never going to happen, and I hear you, but a man can dream, you know.

Be the change you want to see, fuck Unicode in the ass with weird decisions that end up staying around for hundreds of years because it becomes the new standard.

Try to get full sRGB or similar color variety working, but struggle, give up, and bodge together a shitty pre-selected system of 117 colors where your orange is weirdly brown and you completely forgot to include any kind of purple/magenta.

I believe in you, you can do this.
