Times have changed, our threads are getting worse

Should we blame the forum mods?

Or should we blame the posts in the garage?
No!

In my research, two of those icons are from Font Awesome, and the Reply All doesn't got an equivalent in regular emoji while the hand pointer can be replaced with .

Huh. Both have it here for me:

Chrome:
- Noto Color Emoji—Local file(5 glyphs)
- Noto Sans Symbols2—Local file(3 glyphs)
- Arial—Local file(1 glyph)
- Noto Sans CJK SC—Local file(1 glyph)
Firefox:
- Arial
- FreeSerif
- Noto Sans CJK SC
- Symbola
- Twemoji Mozilla

@boomzilla Didn't have the noto fonts installed. Installing them gave me the very necessary double-left-arrow symbol that had clearly been missing from my life.

Windows 11. I guess the emoji engineers had a break from fiddling with the emojis in Teams.

Speaking of which

loopback0

@hungrier Huh. I figured they'd be the new "improved" style

hungrier

@loopback0 I guess those are just for emoji reactions. Messages use normal ones

e: at least when copy pasted from this topic

loopback0

@hungrier it seems if you type them using the OS emoji keyboard you get the OS emojis but if you use the Teams emoji keyboard you get the Teams ones. On iOS Teams at least.
I figured Teams would just replace them with its own.

Also, while looking at the teams emoji picker, I found this:

Can you pick reactions from the whole Teams emoji list? Over here, it only shows a choice of six. Those six include three positive-ish emojis, which means that at least 50% of the space is wasted.

You'd probably get an answer, and it'd serve you right.

I can't really see the usefulness of that (apart from enjoying your wallpaper?), given that you can't even click on a shortcut while it's visible.

I have a couple of shortcuts that open windows and using them is always annoying (then why do I leave them as shortcuts???!!?) because they're hidden by all other windows. The most convenient way to get to them is to minimise everything by clicking the bottom end of the taskbar, which minimises everything. But while clicking again the taskbar restores all windows where they were, this only works when no new window was opened in between. So I click whatever shortcut, a new window opens, and... I can't restore all the other windows the way they were without clicking them all one by one. Ugh.
