Why are Lemmy posts and replies (almost?) emoji free? - I like the small emotion symbols, they add a softer human feel to things :]

I mostly use emojis as either a quick reaction or as a way of acknowledging that I read something someone I know sent me. They make a lot less sense in places like Reddit or Lemmy, where interaction is more impersonal and commenting doesn't feel worth it unless you have something substantial to say.
