Why didn't anyone bother standardizing this shit?
>>54903792
It is standardized. A smiley face is a smiley face. Who the fuck uses emojis though?
>>54903792
> Apple emoticon scores -1
Uhh, who would consider it to be a negative expression?
>>54903831
from the same source as OP's pic
>>54903837
Make the facial expression yourself. Tightly closed eyes and bared teeth with no curvature of the mouth typically implies some sort of pain.
>>54903837
it looks a bit like grimacing, and without seeing Samsung, Android, LG, and Microsoft as references, it's easy to conclude that it's some kind of wincing/cringing face.
>>54903837
It's the "Terry Davis" look.
Yeah, you can change letters entirely and their meaning, or sound, doesn't change, however changing an emoticon changes the feeling they convey entirely. fucking retarded that they put this bloated shit in the unicode standard.
>>54903837
Because it looks like he's held at gunpoint
>>54903792
i think your chart is backwards, and FUCK microsofts is one ugly ass mother fucker
>kill it
>>54903916

It's so annoying trying to play a guessing game of which emoji will mean the same thing for the person reading it on their iphone.
>>54903963
you can think what you want - they surveyed a bunch of people and those were the results.
you have to accept that research broadly trying to capture "the average person" isn't going to be relevant to people on 4chan.
>>54903792
Whoever made that graph is a massive sperg. Nobody thinks the apple emoji is a negative one.
In fact, the one differing most is the Samsung one, since it doesn't have its teeth together.
>>54904181
The apple one looks like an autistic retard trying to smile after hearing a one sentence description of smiling from an adult.
>>54904181
i understand that this is hard to understand, but the graph was informed by hundreds of responses. it wasn't some autistic person on /g/ arbitrarily assigning numerical values to emojis.
>>54904224
you painted a very vivid picture of your first picture day.
corresponding article with the OP's chart. there's a link in there to the published paper.
http://grouplens.org/blog/investigating-the-potential-for-miscommunication-using-emoji/
it's sort of shocking that this thread managed to go about an hour with you fucking retards opining on this stuff without anyone feeling the urge to be more informed by the source.
>>54904241
>you painted a very vivid picture of your first picture day.
don't bully my friend
google is the best but emoji are objectively terrible
:^)
LG and Samsung are cute!
>>54904241
I'm a school teacher. I see that face every fucking day.
Who else got a Ph.D on emoji theory and is ecstatic about this new interest on the field?
>>54903792
>>54904976
This
It was designed by stupid people for stupid people.
Nobody with a functional brain really gives a shit about the consistency of emojis so it will never be fixed.
>>54903792
Personally I never use emojis ever, but hands down, the Apple ones look dated and ugly. No idea who thought it's okay to make everything flat but the emojis (which as typographic symbols shouldn't have any gloss and whatnot to begin with).
>>54904976
> autismcomics
pls
Once again, Apple is wrong.
>>54903792
who cares, each app has their own anyway so if I send an emoji through telegram they'll always receive the same one no matter the platform
why would I ever send emoji through SMS?
>>54903792
It's weird seeing Apple having the worst design of something.
I mean, as much as we like to shit on them design is generally the thing you can count them on doing right, bur their emojis look like something they scavenged up from some free library a dude made in 2004.
Also, when did emoji become a word everyone uses? Like, we have had and used them since fucking forever, why did people suddenly start using the Japanese name? Why did it get popularized? Did Apple start shilling it like the word "App" or something?
>>54903837
The corners of the mouth aren't upturned. So instead of a toothy smile, it could be interpreted at baring teeth.
>>54905065
>It's weird seeing Apple having the worst design of something.
What?
>I mean, as much as we like to shit on them design is generally the thing you can count them on doing right,
WHAT?
>bur their emojis look like something they scavenged up from some free library a dude made in 2004.
The shitty free library garbage style is what most Apple employees seek to emulate. Hipsters man, not even once.
>Also, when did emoji become a word everyone uses?
March of 2015.
>Did Apple start shilling it like the word "App" or something?
Yes.
>>54905021
thank you for pointing that out, I feel much better now
;^)
>>54903792
The MS one got updated
Also, Google has the best emojis
>>54905191
I like them.
Google ones are obv better though.
>google emoji
Never quite understood why emojis look like they look now.
>>54905191
>>54903792
Honestly, Microsoft's "emojis" make me kind of uncomfortable. Also they have been standardized, you may have heard of them, they're called "emoticons". Examples would be " :) ", " :( ", " :^) ".
there's a standard for what the unicode sequence is supposed to depict, but it's up to font designers to render it and as a result it can look different across fonts. I mean, look at cursive fonts versus sans-serif fonts, lmfao
>>54903837
everyone who uses it, old man
>>54905364
you're thinking of fonts. fonts are standardized, in the case you're illustrating.
>>54905137
rip hairy heart
>>54903792
I'd put microsoft at -10, what the fuck is that shit.
>>54905191
who actually smiles with their bottom teeth?
>>54903872
apparently these bozos had nothing else better to do
>>54905805
It's never too late for braces, Anonymous-sama.
>>54903792
>Why didn't anyone bother standardizing this shit?
They have been standardized. Unicode has code points for the emoji. Now, it's up to the companies to use the Unicode standard.
>>54903872
>nearly half of all text on Instagram contains emoji
>>54903837
It's nearly identical to the grimacing one, that's the problem.
>>54905364
>they're called "emoticons"
No, they're called emojis.
>>54905299
how many projectile vomiting pics do you have?
>>54903792
All this is the fault of affirmative action. That's why they invented these symbols for the illiterate niggers who needed a way to communicate by text without actually knowing how to speak or write English.
>>54906064
look at this retard.
>>54906064
retard, stop posting
It looks like a brainfart on Apple's part, since it's supposed to be 'GRINNING FACE WITH SMILING EYES', but they just took their 'GRIMACING FACE' and added the asian eyes to it.
>>54903879
>>54906099
>grimacing face with a bandaid over its mouth
>>54903792
>Why didn't anyone bother standardizing this shit?
Because emojis are like fashion or even GUIs, while you can standardize quietly some things, it is not required for the good functioning, nor is it useful since people will change their tastes quite fast anyway.
>>54903792
Just use ascii emojis in instant messaging if you really need them, they're standardized and look the same on any platform.
>>54906934
Other people use Unicode emojis.
>>54905364
emojis are called emojis because the japs were the first ones to come up with a codepoint standard for emoticons, which then got rolled into unicode
>>54903792
Yahoo smilies were the best and we are never getting them back. ever
>>54903963
it's ugly, but that's not the point of the chart retard
yes. the IEEE consortium on emojis. . ..............
>>54906077
>>54906084
Struck a nerve, samefag?
Why are they called emojis now and not emoticons?
>>54908039
>>54907108
Oh nvm
I guess that's why there are so many japan-related emojis
>>54907129
Nah, MSN smileys were the best
>>54905191
Overall good update, but what the fuck is up with that laughing with tears emoji?!
>>54904181
Get a load of this fugly fuckface sperglord lmao

Apple emoji is most accurate given the context. It shows the most happiness an Apple user could possibly experience while using an Apple product.
>>54908132
looks like some bsg villain
So /g/ can bitch about this trivial shit instead of talking about technology
>not using EmojiOne emojis

Yeah, I'd much rather use that one than all the crap in OP's pic.
>>54903916
Fucking laughing hysterically in public.
>>54909345
This is technology and no standard emoji has been the worst thing ever.
emoji autocorrect is an invention we desperately need.
>>54909423
>I need to take a shit

>>54905191
Much improved, desu
I'm suprised Windows 10 doesn't have a way to input emoji, afaik
>>54906021
No, they're called emoji.
>>54911384
It has a list of them like OS X where you can pick them.
>>54911453
How do you open it, though? And why don't they show up in any browsers
>>54911477
Right click on Taskbar > Show touch keyboard button
Then click on it and you can find them all there.
They show up in Chrome Canary for me.
Anyone else worried other retarded things like the emojii on twitch will have to become part of unicode now?
>>54911578
No, twitch emojis are great for triggering retards
>>54911519
Thanks!
Just upgraded my shitposting by 10%!

>>54912362
given that being offended on social media is used to justify riots and actual revolutions in 2010s (whether you like it or not) it's probably worth considering
I dunno, Apple's one looks perfectly like a smile to me.
One of the key things with a good smile is not the mouth but the eyes and the eyes in the apple one is certainly smiling!

I like LGs gun emoji, it's a colt m1903 while all others are no descript revolvers

It's been somehow standardized tho.
http://apps.timwhitlock.info/emoji/tables/unicode

because everyone except apple seems to have pulled it off fairly well without standardization
>>54906103
you've outdone yourself this time anon
>>54903792
I really like Samsung's
It's standardized if you assess to the Unicode emotes on your phone.
>>54903831
niggers and 12 year old girls
>Emoji's
I'm hijacking the thread because I need people to explain this to me because I'm pretty sure I'm not insane.
Emojis. We're talking about smilies right? Emoicons? Those things that ICO and BBS boards had 20 years ago right? Those things that mIRC had on windows 98? That AOL put in their crappy dial up programs before my nephews were born? Like the things that people had in the ASCII set on DOS?
This is a Thing? This is a Thing now? It's some kind of Big Deal for companies to put smilies in their chat apps? This is what gets the tech industry buzzing at the water cooler these days?
Am I going insane, or did 90% of these people really never use a computer before 2008?
baka @ all of these poors who can't afford an iphone
