Re: This forum doesn't support emojis
ok, here we go.
1: Get with the times, people. Stop being afraid of using immages in communication just because your eyes don't work. I hardly ever use things like lol or rofl when talking to sighted people. Doing the face with tears of joy is so much easier now. It's certainly more accepted in sighted circles than going ahahahahahahahasdfhalskdfjlakshdflkajs, which is something a lot of blind people seem to do when they express laughter textually
2: Emoji spam isn't as much of an issue as you might think, at least not on IOS. If there are 3 or more of the same emoji after the other, Vo will say 3 slice of pizza, it won't go slice of pizza slice of pizza slice of pizza anymore. NVDA *still* doesn't do that, and I don't think it'd be too hard to add. It's a shame there isn't an emoji search on ios or the windows pannel yet, I've heard it existing in some places but not there and it would make things so much easier. Of course, one nice thing is that you can use apple's dictation to find emojis, if you write the word haha, it will let you choose the face with tears of joy without you having to go to the emoji keyboard.
