I’m most anti-trad, but “:)” a traditional old-school pro-working class emoji. Everyone has access to :). It’s right there on the keyboard, physical or digital. It’s a 9-to-5 working emoji.

I would post :) in my reply if I was arguing with someone and really wanted to piss them off

I like :) because you can add more ))) to show how happy you are. As opposed to sending more of the emoji. But the emoji has it’s place.

:) is more equivalent to 😁 than 🙂

🙂 mostly gets used sarcastically. “Fascism is rising, I’m working 80 hours this week, and it’s 90 degrees in November 🙂”

(ツ)

The emoji feels more sarcastic, :) all the way

I prefer this)))
