Per se, the level of use is quite respectable. On emojitracker (not yet updated with newer emoji), :dollar: is at #330/845, and the lowest of the group, :yen:, is #688. My calculations based on the usage count and population of the countries using corresponding signs shows that :dollar: is way out

Thank you for the links, quite mesmerizing! On emojitracker.com (cumulative counts, but only on twitter, AFAICS), U+1F4B5 ($) had quite a respectable count of 2932622 (well above the middle of the page, around 70%ile), U+1F4B7 (pound) had 514536 (around 30%ile), and U+1F4B4 and U+1F4B6 had around

A caveat about using emojitracker.com : it doesn't count newer emoji yet (e.g. U+1F37E bottle with popping cork is absent), thus, when they are added, their counts will be skewed. Leo On Tue, Feb 9, 2016 at 2:00 AM, Leo Broukhis wrote: > Thank you for the links, quite

The emojiexpress.com site is useful to check which new emoji or combinations people actually use, but the stats are likely skewed by only measuring input from one platform. Another way to look at the emojitracker.com stats: 339M people in the Eurozone : 389K uses of Euro emoji 126M people in

I would suggest that you first gather statistics and present statistics on how often the current combinations are used compared to other emoji, eg by consulting sources such as: http://www.emojixpress.com/stats/ or http://emojitracker.com/ Mark On Mon, Feb 8, 2016 at 8:34 PM, Leo Broukhis

I don't see why it is an "emoji exception", and I don't see any implementation issues given that replacing pairs of regional indicator symbols with the corresponding flags already works on many platforms. The rationale for COMBINING BANKNOTE is specifically to avoid the need for individual
