If not for emoji, lots of software wouldn't care about correctly processing strings in other languages, so it's good that we have them.

- hnfong 3y agoThis. I've been quite happy that popular emojis were introduced in supplementary planes, because my language has quite a few common words (eg. 𨋢 [lift/escalator]) that ended up on plane 2. Proper software support for those characters used to be terrible, but things got much better after emojis became popular. So, thanks and sorry everyone :)
