Description
For the dinosaurs among us:
Would it be possible to support only a few of the very common old-school smileys and translate them to the corresponding emoji when typing? Say...
:-)and:)-> 😄:-(and:(-> 😟
No need to go any further, but these are just so very common, I see them in chats as text all the time.
