- stickac 6y agoEmojis are used as avatars, they are not part of the posts

- alexwennerberg 6y agoI would argue that emojis would fit within a technical definition of "text". They fit inside the text/* mimetype.
- reaperducer 6y agoSo do uuencoded and base64-encoded images. ...and we're right back where we started from.
- alexwennerberg 6y agoTrue, but my terminal, web browser, phone, and text editor don't render base64-encoded images in-line, nor is base64 encoding part of the Unicode spec. Emojis behave much more like text than like images.
