Am I misremembering? I coulda sworn that originally the 'white' (realistic, non-yellow) emojis were the only option, and the "neutral" yellow tone was added at the same time as the more diverse set of realistic skin tones. I'm certain that's how it was in Slack, for example - I remember discussing it with people at the time. Was I hallucinating?
- account42 5y agoI think if you are using Slack as an example of how emojis or emoticons were rendered "originally" then you are off by at least a decade. Maybe there were some platfroms/applications that used caucasian skin tones in their emojis, but that was definitely not the rule.
