  YES, emoticons are so much better than emojis!

    They’re objectively not.

      They are not objectively better or worse overall, though one or the other may be objectively better in individual contexts.

      Individual people may prefer one over the other, though. I am one of them.

        In what context where both are available are emoticons objectively better?

  by definition they should really be the same though or at least both qualifying as emoticons. emoji are more icons than emoticons are, and the translation from japanese is literally just picture letter/symbol

    I never said emoticons are icons.

    • Emoji are picture-like and each one is a single-glyph.

    • Emoticons are not picture-like but resemble letters or punctuation, and are typically composed of multiple glyphs to make a coherent whole.
