Yeah, each one is an image link. For example,
is
https://www.hexbear.net/pictrs/image/16a72a38-0fbc-45f3-bf59-dd9e6509f73e.png
So you can go to the image, copy and paste it into your comment, and use it from your own instance. You won’t have the emoji picker unless you have a hexbear account, but you can bookmark and hold on to your favorites.
Thanks comrade!
Now I’m wondering if there’s a unified index of all of these anywhere 🤔
if you’re on hexbear.net all the comment boxes have an emoji button next to the other formatting options. You can scroll the pop-out box (go past the generic emojis). There’s also a search-by-text, but for the most part you gotta get the name just right or it won’t show.
misremembering an emote name and getting frustrated is half the fun
