Never seen anybody using emoji in any community. I did use once or twice, but the way its absent over here, I'm starting to think its part of some implicit rules lemmy has

I like that it's not much in use here.

I have to think more carefully about what words I type and how to convey my emotions in text. It's good to practice written communication, and it's good to be comfortable with it for when you want to be taken more seriously.

And I kinda assume those who splatter their text with emojis are bots or LLMs programmed to sound more human, or people trying to imply or invoke emotions to sell me on some nonsense or other, so I don't read those comments or posts anyway.

It's fun that Lemmy has its own culture which comes as a little shock but is easy to adapt to once you figure it out, isn't it?
