Hello World,
Nothing as exciting as emojis, right? We would like to make it easier for you to express yourselves, so we’ll be adding custom emojis to Lemmy.World. The question is, which ones? Let’s pick together!
So, we’re reaching out to everyone with a Lemmy.World account: Please provide a link to the image you’d like to suggest and upvote the ones you’d like to see! The most upvoted emoji’s will, after review, be added to our list of custom emojis.
The emojis can be used by anyone on Lemmy.World in comments and posts.

Surprised Pikachu is timeless
Im so impressed how permeative “Suprised Pikachu” has been in the general culture
If we’re having thonk, we need angery.
Reminds me of Cartman.
The original one from @YoBuckStopsHere@lemmy.world himself! Adding that one right now

This brings back bad 🍋 memories for those who were there at the time 👀
Perennial favorite.
We actually made Lemmy World Silver a few months ago.
That looks like it took more effort than the other one, which is antithetical to the intent of
redditLemmy Silver
Effort? It was drawn on a post it note lol.
That’s a chungus silver not gonna lie
For you.
Beautiful. Brings a tear to my eyes.
I hope I got the stroke weight right.
I love me some gull scream. It’s basically how I feel every day.
Ahem. I am not a fan of encouraging people to post giant low-content images in Lemmy threads. It is really nice to have a mostly textual medium, and inserting huge Pikachus or Picards or Frys into it is not an improvement to this user experience. Many of the images in this thread appear at around ⅓ of screen height in the default browser UI, and they have very little new to say.
If this sort of feature has to exist, please consider limiting it to rather small images, more in the “icon” range than the “memegens” range.
I just assumed these would be, you know, emoji-sized emojis.
I’m just going by what shows up in the thread here.
Good practice would be to globally limit the max-width of an emoji to something like 100px anyway. When clicked, the full image opens.
These are embedded images they are larger.
I think hexbear emojis are small on their instance but they are gigantic on every other instance. That might be the case here too. As a non world member I don’t wish to see giant images.
Yeah I’d have to agree with limits on the size.
oh, i guess i just figured they would just be emoji sized
Thank you. Glad I’m not the only person who hates seeing what is meant as a reddit alternative turn into Discord.
Image and gif comments tend to get inordinate amounts of upvotes too and push actual quality comments down.
agree, if they implement this, I will just set a ublock rule so I never have to see it.
👍
the troll face, obviously:
