Aus.Social Admin

@MsDropbear84 @Gargron @shlee @AusSocialMods I believe the better option would be "shared, but moderated" `emojo relay` - similar to twitch's ecosytem having a common shared location people can upload emotes... then admins could just subscribe to those lists

@aussocialadmin @MsDropbear84 @Gargron @shlee @AusSocialMods Admins already can import emojis from other instances.

I use Linux myself, but I run an instance that's not aimed at nerds, so adding in all this Linux-related stuff wouldn't mean anything to them and just clutter the Emoji UI.

Oh? Well, in that case, fwiw to the others here [given i'm merely a user & can't do it myself ofc], tech.lgbt has all these #FOSS #emojis, tilde.zone has most of them, & iirc fosstodon.org has at least some of them.

@MsDropbear84 @aussocialadmin @Gargron @shlee @AusSocialMods You should only request emojis for an instance that you're on yourself. Servery already import them automatically for display - it's just the capability to use them yourself on the posting box that needs manual work by the admins.

That's exactly what i am doing. I've recently moved to aus.social, & am asking for these #FOSS emojis for aus.social. Previously i was at each of those other Instances i named, which is why i know about them. I also have an account at kolektiva.social, where i have been asking its Mods & Admin for several months about the emojis, but they have 100% ignored me. That's why, earlier today, when i saw Eugen's toot about the new version, & reflecting on how hard it's been to get Mods/Admins at all my prior Instances to help with these emojis, i had the sudden [bad?] idea to ask about maybe doing it systemically rather than on a per-Instance basis.
