The popularity of Emoji to me is not good for communication.
Instead of careful and clarity in writing, people choose Emoji to respond to what needs to be more clarified.
So, if it's hard to express your thought, let's pick an Emoji!?
At work, this leads to more trouble in writing. Most of JIRA tickets are mostly non-existent that it's badly written, confusing to the developers and rest of the team.
Emoji might be just one reason for that. But anyway, it just shows the trouble on how people have problem in writing communication.
Do people overuse Emoji ? I don't think this is about overuse or not, it's about people failed at expressing their thought through writing.
- halfmatthalfcat 5y agoEmojis are fast, easy and universally understood, especially across language barriers. Not all responses between humans need to be written in prose. Using images has been and will continue to be a significant way for humans to communicate with.
- revskill 5y agoYou missed the point here. Instead of a clear explanation in written form, people think an emoji is enough, which is a problem. As the author doesn't want to know how other 're feeling , they want to know their thoughts instead.
- hoten 5y agoPerhaps they missed whatever point you were making, but your comment is largely offtopic.
- skipnup 5y agoPeople also use gestures and facial expressions while talking (see Italy for a frequently portrayed nation for this), why not use the next best thing in (non-formal) communication?
