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?
If I type
:handthen [Win+;] I expect the hand emoji section to be shown, or at least the search box to be auto-filled.I don't want to touch the mouse to select an emoji, I just type, select (with keyboard) and go on with my writing.
Changing focus to type a search term in a small pupup is non productive.
I rechecked just now, the search field is gone in Win11, even more useless now... M$ is not even trying, too focused on adding spyware lol
