But such a font can be incomplete in regard of the number of emojis by itself. In general it would be possible to install an emoji font for the forum as the forum operator and to choose the font in the admin panel afterwards i.e. This speaks for a emoji-select-box being an optional feature. In general we can assume, that there are forums where emojis are very welcome and other installations where they do not matter. So it seems to me, that even big players are not willing to count on the OS and the fonts they provide. I remembered the upgrades of messenger software, namely Text Secure/Signal, where the installation of a new version of such dedicated fonts was mentioned every when and then. While writing a feature list for MLF2 I came across the emoji issue and the necessitiy of a dedicated font again. Yes, I think they use the external service named "Emoji Mart". We will see, if I'll get a working result. I am working on an alternative construction. □Ī second thing is the emoji-selection-box in itself. And yes, even 2.3 MB is far from anything like My LittleFont. The font files are uploaded to the -webspace. I wonder, why the WOFF2 file is so much larger than the WOFF file because the compression algorithm of WOFF2 should be so much better than the one od WOFF. The only solution was to use a web font with Because the only for free downloadable file type of the font was TTF with a file size of around 24MB (what is out of question) I converted the font to WOFF (2.3MB) and WOFF2 (5.4MB). I checked, if my persomal computer had installed a proper font and installed one free emoji font (Noto Emoji Regular) on my system, no success. I took over the font-family-settings for the postings and the Emoji-selection-box, no success. I compared the solution in the SelfHTML forum again with our attempts. CoVid time (more or less over) brings boredom.
