#Twitter emoji

From OG stars to hearts and then to possibly emoji reactions, Twitter is considering a change in how people engage with tweets. Surveys from Twitter proposed different sets of reaction emojis like the heart, laughing face, thinking face, and crying emoji for their platform. "We’re exploring additional ways for people to express themselves in conversations happening on Twitter," a Twitter spokesperson said of the survey. https://twitter.com/WFBrother/status/1374633883593887747 The company has been surveying users throughout the month to get input on how they feel about a broader set of emoji-style reactions, TechCrunch reports. The survey questions demonstrated that Twitter is aware of the challenges that would come along the platform with the inclusion of emojis. Twitter also asked how users would feel if their own tweets would be downvoted and whether that would discourage them from future tweets.
