Last I heard they don’t have the auto-complete thing like we do, but they can paste the whole image link that looks like ! [data-laughing](https://www.hexbear.net/pictrs/image/b6671e8e-7f34-45d6-82d3-509fe8a4d683.png “emoji data-laughing”

As soon as you federated I could do that! But there is a catch, the method I coined as “cross site emoji posting” works by writing in emojis as text between colons, which then Hexbear converts it into emojis for Hexbaristas to view. And only Hexbaristas XD

So my emojis are only visible to you, and others have to use their imagination. Including me. Most emojis I use I remember the names of by heart, other times I check their names in the ALL EMOJIS post on c/emoji.

Here’s the first post I used this method in: https://lemmygrad.ml/post/1187237

As you can see I posted text, but on Hexbear it’s an emoji.

I’m also the person who submitted :rotato-chip:, :garf-chan:, :blu-team: and :red-team: to the site.

As you can see I have extreme power many wish they could wield even as Hexbaristas. And I’m a dirty sectarian tankie from a different website :sicko-power:
