Re: Fwd: The Most Frequent Emoji

Sidebar looks same as on other pages for me. Don't like the design, but that's a different issue. Now, stuff on the bottom: the line with the "terms of use" is at least one font size too small. Esp. if the terms of use are supposed to be a clickable link. You have to have pretty good eyesight to be able to read it - not sure how well that plays for required legal language. I think that should be looked into and fixed  - but it's systemic. A./ On 10/10/2019 11:46 PM, Martin J. Dürst via Unicode wrote: I had a look at the page with the frequencies. Many emoji didn't display, but that's my browser's problem. What was worse was that the sidebar and the stuff at the bottom was all looking weird. I hope this can be fixed.

One important factor is data about how frequently the current emoji are used. Patterns of usage help to inform decisions about future emoji. The Consortium has been working to assemble this information and make it available to the public. And the two most frequently used emoji in the world are... 😂 and ❤️ The new Unicode Emoji Frequency <https://home.unicode.org/emoji/emoji-frequency> page shows a list of the Unicode v12.0 emoji ranked in order of how frequently they are used. “The forecasted frequency of use is a key factor in determining whether to encode new emoji, and for that it is important to know the frequency of use of existing emoji,” said Mark Davis, President of the Unicode Consortium. “Understanding how frequently emoji are used helps prioritize which categories to focus on and which emoji to add to the Standard.” ------------------------------------------------------------------------ /Over 136,000 characters are available for adoption <http://unicode.org/consortium/adopt-a-character.html>, to help the Unicode Consortium’s work on digitally disadvantaged languages./ [badge] <http://unicode.org/consortium/adopt-a-character.html> http://blog.unicode.org/2019/10/the-most-frequent-emoji.html
