I use emoji for two purposes: to indicate post types and as tagmoji, both for the purposes of discovery in the micro.blog community and as a way for me to quickly search my posts on a given topic. On this page, I’ll provide a key to emojis as I implement them. An emoji at the beginning of the post indicates the post type, while an emoji at the end of the post operates as a tagmoji.
