Hello everyone. I have made an addon to allow you to pick emojis when outside of hexbear! (Or really, pick emojis from any lemmy instance)
I need an icon for it (I’ve been using the lemmy icon during development) and I will upload it to Firefox addons once I have that. Please do help me and give suggestions!
Here is the source code: https://git.encryptionin.space/hackerncoder/lemmy-emojies

This is objectively a better invention than sliced bread.

As a Midwest.social user, thank you so much for this. Now I just need to figure out emoji names…

In what way?

To search the ones I want.

6·16 天前I presumed that was what you meant. There are keywords, and emoji-mart supports them and will search in them. So even though the name for
is “all-cops-always-bastards,” searching for “martin” will bring it up.It does require there to be keywords. For example,
doesn’t have any, which makes it hard to find when all you’re thinking of is “eyes.” … Should ask the admins to add eyes to the keywords of that one.

also I think this would make a nice icon for this project

11·17 天前Thank you for the icon suggestion. I have gone with it and have submitted the addon for review on AMO.

you are welcome to use this as the icon:

this rules!
It’s actually better for it to not be hexbear branded so having it installed doesn’t immediately fingerprint your browser as a hexbear user.
Is there any pack or something for whatapp?
Can you not make your own? I don’t use WhatsApp, but a lot of other stuff like Delta Chat and Matrix clients let you just import any images as a ‘sticker pack’. I once tried to import all the Hexbear emojis at once (like 2000) and crashed everything when I tried to open the menu lol. But they’re all here.
Thanks! I’m going to check out what can be done with this!

This is awesome, thank you. I’ll get it for FF when it comes out.
I haven’t poked at how feasible this would be, but it’d be cool if it could be bundled as a userscript so that it also works on mobile devices that support script managers.

7·17 天前I did kinda think about it, but I’m not really sure. I could take another look at it though.

Sick! Does it only work for lemmy and stuff like that or could I use it for whatsapp as well?

9·17 天前The “input” (where to get the emoji list from) has to be a lemmy instance.
The ouput is markdown, copied to your clipboard. So anywhere that accepts
![]()markdown images will work. Probably not whatsapp.

Dang, I was about to blow up the family chat with a sick new emoji game

Thank you!
I signed up on lemmy.ml and wanted those, you rule
