malokiEverytime people put emojis between every single word of a post, I think about the accessibility issues that tends to present.
cyrinsong@maloki its a black cultural thing, and intended to be condescending. accessibility really isn't a concern in that context https://www.reddit.com/r/OutOfTheLoop/comments/4pq0gn/what_is_the_meaning_of_statusestexts_with_the/d4n0f4k/
@cyrinsong Oh yeah, I understand where it came from. But the people I've seen comment on the accessibility of it is PoC ... so yeah.
@maloki my point is that the claps are, by intent, rude and mildly off-putting.
This issue is akin to talking about the accessibility issues in shouting your comments at someone through a megaphone
also I mean "black" specifically, not PoC in general
@cyrinsong Yeah, I gotcha.
Thank you for the clarification.
I did know it's roots. But I mean, it still bothers me. ;) Since it's spread.
