Spot on and that's why I added a note at the end of the post. Also to chime in, this is not any different from using smileys. Play as long as know what you're doing.

A note on emojis. Screen readers can read them out loud with description, which actually conveys quite a lot of feeling / information.

I can see how going overboard with emojis can be seen as noise, but they do convey meaning, emotion and intent. Even for screen readers when used in moderation.

This is the most straight to the point example I found right now: youtu.be/Pt1TOgz3Y4Y
