I don't think this is a shitpost, it's actually quite good. It makes you think.

Well, hieroglyphs aren't just pictograms. Some are, but the bulk you can pronounce .If you were versed in the language you could read out aloud what's on that slate just like you can read out aloud this comment. Try doing that with the wall of emojies.

That being said, emojies do much enhance our communication potential ๐Ÿฅณ.

You๐Ÿฅซdo the same with emojis.

You tomato sauce do the same with emojis?

Emojis look different on different platforms but we have a good core to work with

I'm on Android MapleSyrup and I see tomato sauce in a bag.

That's an interesting interpretation of "canned food"

Exactly, we've got words for (almost) all emojis. And besides that, even if I would go along with @[email protected] argument, the reason we might not have words for all emojies is because we don't need them. If we would like to, or evolve to the need, of being able to pronounce every emoji that would mean we would make sure everyone had a word or sound to it.

You beans the same with emojis?

[โ€“] [email protected] 10 points 2 months ago

Emojis have tons of uses in modern communication. One example is Chinese citizens using them to disseminate information about covid that the government was blocking.

That's not true. It's in color now.

Egyptian hieroglyphs used to be painted, what we see now is usually (but not always) completely faded.
