built this tool that generates custom emoticons. It’s pretty fun to use, but I feel like it could be better. Since you guys are brutally honest (and creative), I figured this is the best place to ask: What features should I add? Anything annoying or clunky about it? Any cool ideas to make it stand out? Let me know your thoughts. Rip it apart if you have to—just want to make it as good as possible. Site name: EmoticonHub
Just me you and 748 of your closest friends, awesome. Where can I find the source?
꧁｡ﾟᕕ〔ಠ⌵ಠ〕ᕗ｡ﾟ꧂
Brilliant. I do think it would be nice is longer emoticons shrunk once they hit a certain length (though that just may be my phone).

Found a bug
Maybe add a "Lemmy mode" since Lenny uses symbols to mark italics, bold, etc, and causes a lot of emoticons to bug out
Like ¯_ (ツ) _/¯ when it should be ¯\_ (ツ) _/¯
Lemmy uses markdown to format posts. So yeah, a "markdown mode" would be awesome (just insert escape characters before each * and \ etc.)
Or maybe I'm wrong ٩(｡•́‿•̀｡)۶ (huh, Voyager comes with an emoticon picker)
Edit: it worked, I'm not wrong
Ruin it and make yourself miserable by implementing AI into this...
Kidding aside, this is hilarious and useful at the same time! Thank you for doing something creative that does suck ass immediately

I love it!
Huh, should this occur with these settings:
<(•◡•)>“><( )> <option value=
Some other strange behaviour with this one: 👈?Ỡ◡Ỡ?️

Favourite so far.
Some gaps in the options for mouth and nose.

New favourite (Composer). Okay, I'll stop now.

Luigi emoticon.
Nice (・人・)

Ok that one wins
I like it.
May I suggest a “none” option for base/eyes/mouth too?
(・‸・)
nice work!
i found a bug though
selecting the sixth option in the base menu puts html in the output:
(this is in Tor Browser, which is based on the "ESR" release of Firefox)

Im bookmarking this site.
A randomizer would be great!

That was a lot of cookies to deny just for an emoticon. But fun tool!
Oof, you're right about those cookies, definitely something I need to streamline. Thanks for pushing through and giving it a shot anyway!
found a bug ;)
Edit: where is the link?
Another one: some arms will make the base chars disappear when rendered (guessing it’s a diacritic thing)
thanks for catching that bug, I will get on fixing it ASAP

THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS I LOVE IT

I just wish it integrated with my Android keyboard
that is the #1 thing I miss about Gboard (I now use HeliBoard with the disembodied Google gesture typing library loaded into it)
Ah yes I'm gesture typing as we speak
haha wiggly finger go brrrrrrrr
One wiggly finger or two?
I haven't been able to get dual finger swiping to work on my heliboard.
༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ
there's dual finger swiping!?
Yeah, haha
Actually, I forgot I did get it to work, I just can't figure out how to use it. Lol
And can't find a guide either.
You have something like 2000 friends all wanting to contact me for legitimate interest. Is it okay, if I tell them no?
Agree with less cookies and trackers if possible. Google doesn't need to see my emoticons.
Also would prefer a JS free-version if possible, but I can see how that might not work.
Or maybe you're also collecting the IPs of everyone here by cross referencing usernames with the emoticons used in comments and copied from your site. Statistically, this would actually be pretty easy to use to doxx people's IPs/locations that way.
Not a huge fan of how some of the arms have () in them. The brackets should be place holders for the base, no?
〘／ᓀᨎᓀ〙／̸͆̎/͆̿̇ ͆̅͆͞͞͞͞ι̿̿̿ ̿̎͆ ̀̈
vs
(／〘ᓀᨎᓀ〙)／̸͆̎/͆̿̇ ͆̅͆͞͞͞͞ι̿̿̿ ̿̎͆ ̀̈
Love the tool though!
I don't think I've ever fully realised the depth of feeling I have for emoticons, let alone that there were others out there!
─=≡Σ((( つ•̀ω•́)つ LET'S GO!
Please add a link.
This is supa dope! What inspired this? Are there any other similar tools or is this first of its kind?
Hah, this is great ┌∩┐⸦(͠⊙ヘ͠⊙)⸧┌∩┐
Enjoy the hotdogs
Found a bug. Switching from the left pointed finger emotes to pointed both ways or the strong arm emote gives some unicode errors. This is on firefox
