- Stratoscope 9y agoSome Unicode works here — like the preceding em dash and the hair spaces around it, along with bullets: • One • Two
- Malice 9y agoThe point might have been that with access to emojis (on other platforms) youngsters no longer use the oldschool emojis. Use of oldschool emojis strongly suggests oldschool poster :)
- TimTheTinker 9y agoUse of the word "emoticon" instead of "emoji" would also be a strong indicator :)
