Nonetheless, I only see one instance abusing of the bug. It's definitely lemmy growing pains though. I'm hoping some instance just outright ban images and emoticon, I always hated them. The little 🤣🤣🤣 always screamed teenage bullshit to me.

We're not abusing "the bug" we're just using our instance the way our instance is meant to work. We have a lot of emotes and we use them. There's probably like 600 of them at this point.

It's not our fault they show up incorrectly on other servers, it's lemmy. The reason you don't see other instances doing it is because everywhere else on lemmy has existed for like 3 weeks and has absolutely no unique culture yet. We've been here 3 years and have had considerably more time to build up the Hexbear community lore, emote collection, etc etc.

We aren’t abusing the bug we just are posting emojis like we always do
