β€οΈ your emojis? Well, good news - you can now use them here. Enjoy! π
In reply to ProDarwin :
If you're using a smartphone, we're referring to those.
However, the built-in forum emojis are in the works to be modernized as well.
Right--these aren't more built-in forum thingys, this is actual support for the emoji standard that's built into your device. Computers can use them, too, though they're less common:

Good news: looks like the Search function works about the same on emoji as it does on 'normal' text
Bad news: looks like the Search function works about the same on emoji as it does on 'normal' text (e.g. if I search for π₯, why does it also include results for the text "fire"?)
Old/ esoteric geekery: at a former employer I noticed the ERP system used the NCHAR data type for a lot of fields. So of course I had to try it, and yes indeed we could have used emoji in stuff like our part#s or inventory locations. It might have been hilarious for about 10 sec: "Hey, can you go count the πΊπ₯οΈπ that are supposed to be in Aisle π’ Bin π?"
My queries would have become even more unreadable if I had known you could do stuff like "SELECT CustomerName AS π¦"

The search feature must be converting the emoji description to text, and its Unicode name is fire.

oh, joy π±
also, it's apparently "Fn+E" to pull up the emoji options on macOS
