Just found the Emoji/GIF keyboard in Windows....🤦♂️
(beehaw.org)
I am posting this because I am ashamed I just found out it existed, and I thought I would subject the rest of my Beehaw friends to the same experience! 😁
The instructions are super simple, Windows Key + . (period) opens up a little overlay which contains Emojis, GIFs, Clipboard, and some other stuff I'm not sure is useful.
Ill end this post with a question for you all:
-What was something you learned about technology FAR later than you SHOULD have?
IIRC this feature used to only be available in English locale and needed a registry hack to enable it on other locales. That might not be the case anymore
Works on German locale here out of the box now. (Win 10)
But I also learned about this feature pretty recently.
Sounds like maybe when they released the feature initially? Although I'm more thinking of the normal style of rollout where they trial a region first.
Super strange that something like this would be language specific, considering it's all Unicode characters behind the scenes, the emojis anyway yeah?
Has worked for a long time in my Danish version of Windows 10.
