- eric_h 10y agoYeah, I honestly think it's an improvement. +1 ;)
- superswordfish 10y agoGitHub never would have had that problem in the first place if :+1: were not so easy to do. There's no reason to make emoji part of GitHub flavored markdown or for it to be an autocomplete.
- pimlottc 10y agoPeople have used plaintext "+1"'s for ages, I wasn't even aware there was markup for it now.
- eric_h 10y agoThere is now no longer a reason to make emoji as part of the markdown, as the vast majority of devices can now do it natively. When Github flavored markdown was first created, emojis were most certainly not at all widespread natively.
