From I usually observe, emojis on a computer aren’t as good (in terms of graphics) as they are on smartphones. Could anyone clear this little cloud of doubt in my head?
In: Technology
Emojis are part of the [unicode](https://home.unicode.org/) specificiation, essentially a universal standard for keeping track of all characters that can be rendered as text. With this in mind, it is up to the software manufacturer to decide how these characters are actually conveyed to the user. Most emojis you see are simply part of a font, and fonts obviously differ. For example, if you use a windows device you’re likely going to see the [Segoe UI Emoji Font](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/typography/font-list/segoe-ui-emoji), while Twitter and Discord use the open-source designs called [Twemoji](https://twemoji.twitter.com/). It’s ultimately up to the software developers and designers how emojis will appear to you.
