Reading comments in different communities, I noticed that users hardly leave smilies. Why is that?

    I still test out messaging apps by using this fella

    (_/)

    (0.0)

    (> <)

    I’d be interested to see which ones you have on that file

    Edit: Lemmy apparently doesn’t like the rabbit’s formatting

      It should format properly if you use a code block. This is the bunny I always used to use

        (\ /)
       (^.^ )
      (")(")o

      either escape the backslash or embed the whole thing in a code block

      (\_/)
      (0.0)
      (> &lt;)
      

      and Markdown insists on breaking anything with a less-than character (considering the preview shows correctly but then you hit “Save”) …

      You can escape formatting by adding a backslash in front.

      this is a quote

      The rabbit’s left ear looks like it should be a backslash (\_/)

      Backslash is an escape character used in formatting, so if you want to actually display a backslash you need to use two (\\_/)

      Oh the file itself turned out to be garbage because it was a text file. So it was terrible at preserving spacing and all that. I can upload it when I get home if you want nostalgia more than usability lol I probably used it for a month out of stubbornness before just finding a website that hosts emoticons.
