Well yes these are emoji, but i was expecting something more “:)”-ish

  You could use skintone modifiers on some of the smilies - but I thought that was a bit weird.

  They aren't emojis. Standard ASCII.

    That's not quite the case. The blocks are available in the Miscellaneous Symbols and Arrows section of Unicode. That's usually rendered as plain text (although not ASCII). But they're also paired with Variation Selector 16 (https://emojipedia.org/variation-selector-16/ https://emojipedia.org/variation-selector-16/) which gives them an Emoji presentation on most modern systems.

  Yeah blocks from unicode aren't exactly what I was expecting when I clicked through. Of course you can make a QR code with what are essentially big black and white pixels...
