That very simple and obvious because any time you making any post you have emojis staring at you even when you where creating this thread. You actually got alot of things to learn in this forum so try taking your time to understand how the system work. Or you could just click the help icon It would help alot...

apart from what the posts above have mentioned, if you are using a desktop/laptop you can also use the "window key + period" shortcut to use more emojis.

try checking this thread "[ADD] Some Hidden Emojis on the line {for Emoji lovers} (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5470958.0)" There are some posts and links there that were shared that you might find useful when using emojis.

Depends on the kind of device you are using. A side from the inbuilt forum emojis that are limited. You can get emojis from windows using a shortcut key already provided by another member about. Ubuntu has an app called characters where you can easily copy smileys and emoticons, and you paste them on the text you want to post.

I guess you already have tried using one from the above ones present right ahead of your typing page, but you seems confused because you see them turned into codes or characters when selected instead of being the same as that on the social media platforms.

Is this a thing to get worried about??
Emojis shouldn't be something that will affect you from posting. You can actually use the emoji while typing on your mobile phone the keys has its own emojis you can click on the emoji keys to see more emojis display on your keyboard then you can tap to add, alternatively if using your laptop you can also press window and plus (+) key to see more hidden emojis. I think acroman08 already have a good explanation of it.

Emojis is over used, will be annoying but you can use it to make your topic title, post a little bit funny.

Before posting, there is a box that is defined for the post, at the top of the box there are some necessary tools that you can use for your needs. With those necessary tools, some emojis are added in one line. You go to the line in which emoji you want to use, at the end or before the line, you just click the emoji you like and by clicking the emoji you like, you post, you will see automatic emoji showing in your post.

I am not sure if you are aware of that however there is an emoji picker in Windows built-in.
Press Win + . and it will popup this UI where you can select any emoji you want to use.

It's pretty useful if you really wanna use emojis and it also works in many apps, can't say all.

If you're posting from a phone, check your keyboard. Those emojis there that you use for Whatsapp and other chat apps can also be easily used here by tapping on them where typing to post here. I mostly use them, rather than the custom built ones for the forum. Press hard on the tab displaying an emoji symbol to display the various emojis and then select what you want. Try it and thank me later 😏
