The only important function of emojis should be to display the same idea or emotion to the viewer as was intended by the person who sent it. We're in a much better state now with all the emoji sets slowly converging to look the same, compared to years ago when Samsung's grimace emoji looked constipated[1], or their eye roll emoji looked like a cute smile while everyone else's was clearly a sarcastic eye roll[2], causing many a miscommunication. The blobs were nice in a vacuum, but in most usages they weren't an accurate reflection of the intent of either the person sending them, or what the person seeing them was supposed to see from the sender. They made the right move switching away. [1] https://www.reddit.com/r/CrappyDesign/comments/6bk8i1/samsung_grimacing_face_emoji/ https://www.reddit.com/r/CrappyDesign/comments/6bk8i1/samsun...
