Genuinely gutted about this. May be the final straw.

The text looks smaller and less pronounced too. My poor eyesight is struggling with it.

TheGirlWhoLived · 21/04/2022 00:20

Is my personal favourite

Who thought it would be a good idea to place them in alphabetical order??

Ahhh. I was wondering why they were in that bizarre order. Thank you.

Its still stupid (as is the fact letters don’t automatically capitalise!) but there’s some logic!

They are still accessible on the talk app.

GoodSoup · 20/04/2022 22:57

Thank fuck that one is still here. It’s my favourite.

really was the best one and I often look for it when I’m typing texts on my phone forgetting it’s a MN one.
what a load of shite this new look is. Argh It’s not even starting sentences with a capital letter!!!!!! ^

Agreed. I go to use it in WhatsApp and am always disappointed. Closely followed by

They are just iPhone emojis now?

but but but

was the best smiley face ever

Theyre not iPhone ones they're the ones on all other chats/apps & phones

Hohofortherobbers · 20/04/2022 22:31

My was small and low. I need my back.

Hohofortherobbers · 20/04/2022 22:30

Why are all your traditional MN emojis so small and low? I'm going to test here

See it’s also doing quote in quote in quote on threads. That’s doing to make posts annoyingly long.

Especially as posts are soooo spread out but also really narrow and wasting masses of space.

I also don’t know why shedloads of emojis are now added. Can’t most people just use the ones in the emoji keyboard on their device

Just to say we are reading all of your feedback and will ensure it gets shown to the wider team. Please bear with us - there are quite a lot of comments and threads as you can imagine.

It could be quite annoying though.

I see your point.

But it is nice to finally be able to quote a response to a quote... I don't think scenarios like the one we've engineered will happen very often!
