I will be honest, I haven't came around to using XMPP myself yet, but I am pretty sure you are able to do all of those things, at least with the help of extensions. Here's the XMPP standards that are currently stable or experimental:
Files/Images:
Emojis/Stickers:
Looking at clients, I see various ones that have at least some of the features you are looking for (especially file and image sharing, I haven't found a client that has explicitly implemented the stickers specification yet, but Movim seems to have them):
I would give it some more time. It seems those features are in development, but this is essentially an alternative to Matrix that is more standardized. It's a widely adopted and integrated protocol, so I don't doubt the features you are looking for will become more fleshed out some day.
