Hello everyone 👋🏼 ,


first of all thanks @Yash Pratap Singh. for the idea and reviewing the thread.
We came up with an interesting question: What’s your favorite Emoji?
And without writing ✍️ too much about it, I start thinking about the question 💭 and had this idea 💡:

Let’s chat only with Emojis, starting with answering the question: What’s your favorite Emoji?

But what are Emojis?
Emojis are little pics, ideograms or smileys to express feelings or things.
They are being used on web pages or while messaging/chatting.
The early beginning of an Emoji was in the 90s and an Emoji was the emoticon - a text-based version.[Source, my friend Wikipedia:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emoji]
Btw: this is what the first emoji set looked like. It included 90 emojis and was developed by J-Phones (nowadays known as SoftBank) for the mobile phone SkyWalker DP-211SW.

Fun fact: it is the base for the emoji design of Apple .

It was quite easy to use a „:“, „-“ and „)“ to create and send a smile in a SMS.
I used emoticons in a SMS, because you know: you only had 160 characters in ONE SMS - and a SMS was expensive back then.
So writing a SMS was the beginning for me where I got in touch with emoticons.
Nowadays I am using emojis for quick replies or for expressing my feelings.

Let’s see how far we can make it.
No words needed for this fun.
Let the emojis speak!😉
