Seemed like emojis in posts / comments would get downvoted to oblivion on Reddit. I don’t see the same thing on Kbin (or other instances / services).

😬 Is a fun one. Or if someone’s doing something sketchy / kinda nonsensical but I don’t plan on intervening, I’ll go with 👀 🍵 or 💅

I made a friend recently who likes to use the plant emoji. It’s really sweet and refreshing, and it feels calming somehow. She’s very nice to me 🌱

Judging by the comments it looks like all the extreme emoji haters are the toxic people who refuse to leave Reddit. I love that for the most part the people that left Reddit and are active in Kbin/Lemmy aren’t the super toxic ones that frequented Reddit, it’s really a breath of fresh air

Same! I lurked a lot on Reddit because even trivial comments felt like they’d get picked at (or more often just not result in additional conversation). Here I feel much more comfortable typing and not second guessing. Feels good.
