yo I didn’t know we could do this, bravo

Agreed on IZ, that emote has been renamed :iz-shaka: (and tagged appropriately so it’s hopefully still findable)

The rest is tbd, thank you for your efforts making it, and your patience!

It’s fixed

(thank you for letting us know)

Proposal: Do Nothing, but improve searchability by making the shortcode autocomplete also search by tags, not just the canonical name.

We have the ability to add basically unlimited alt-names or descriptors to the tags for each emote, which has made searching in the emoji picker much more viable even for obscure emotes (provided they are well-tagged). Problem is, nobody uses the emoji picker, most people don’t even know it exists.

Make sure the library is reasonably well tagged and make that tweak to the searching and this whole conundrum goes away.

Examples below of some existing tags from a previous effort to tag all the emotes:

We might also want to make the alt-text more descriptive for people with screen readers but that’s a separate conversation

Edit: Oh it looks like a dev (comrade makotech222) has already chimed in on this below:

also, its maybe possible we can enhance the inline emoji window to use keywords as well. would have to do some experimentation with it.

 

secondary option if this isn’t feasible: remove the unicode emojis from the emoji picker so it goes straight to our custom emotes when opened, and make it more prominent in the UI somehow (highlight it in a different color, make it bigger, make it sparkle, idc). And still finish the job tagging them all

Working on this very site. So nothing cool, no

I really hope we can restore the old Active algorithm, it’s still on the table afaik, but I’m told the way that lemmy’s database schema works has changed enough that it isn’t trivial to switch back to.

Also dosent all modern operating systems have extracting files Just build in regardless of the format?

No.

aren’t two or maybe even all 3 of the people in that picture firmly gen Z? Anyhow idc generations are fake and everyone is cringe
