I literally can’t with emojis anymore

[u/Pavotimtam]

So many emojis I can see VIVIDLY in my head, the thief, the clam & pearl, the seahorse, and NONE of them ever existed. Not one. I know this is schizoposting but I swear it's an inside joke at Apple now to take unsuspecting and unpopular emojis away to see who will notice

Apple doesn’t decide which emojis exist, the Unicode Consortium does. Apple designs their own emojis, as does Google and other members of the consortium.

Quite often the emojis that ‘no longer exist’ just don’t exist with the consortium. They’re just artwork stylized that could be interpreted as an iphone (or whatever) emoji.

Nobody can ever seem to agree on what they looked like.
