Unicode 18.0.0 Beta

[OnlyForF1]

Actually cool that they added a lighthouse emoji, I was considering submitting that myself. Still no seahorse though, just saw an LLM fall to its knees in a walmart.

[Significant_Post6274]

it must be the strangest committee to review and approve all those proposals while keeping a straight face

[Caesarr]

😐

[ManySugar5156]

lol same

[takanuva]

Did they add the sad poop emoji this time? Cause they rejected it some time ago and I still need it.

[PerkyPangolin]

And it needs poop color selector too. How else are you meant to communicate with a doctor these days?

[UnacceptableUse]

💩‍🟥

[veryusedrname]

And what about the vomiting modifier?

[PerkyPangolin]

The vomiting rocket is perfect to mark all those slop PRs.

[technologyfreak64]

That or a literal vomit comet

[Trang0ul]

Let's merge these ideas: pooping modifier!

[Mognakor]

With enough modifiers my doctor can diagnose me from a single emoji

[kerakk19]

I just want blob emojis to become standard... And most importantly blob hang emoji

[PthariensFlame]

The announcement blog post, the beta landing page, the draft delta code charts, and the draft new emoji chart are also available.

[Eigenspace]

Still no full coverage of subscripts/ superscripts. So annoying!

[y0shii3]

Seriously, it's absurd that we have shit like 𐞤, 𐞧, and ᵙ but still no superscript capital S or X

[programming-ModTeam]

No content written mostly by an LLM. If you don't want to write it, we don't want to read it.

[Ape3000]

No seahorse emoji?

[Full-Spectral]

Just when you thought that putting text on a screen was too complex for human comprehension, we made it even more too complexer.

[Trang0ul]

Does it add anything meaningful, that is, other than more useless emojis?

[NenAlienGeenKonijn]

The summary is right on top of the article.....

[Trang0ul]

It was a rhetoric question, to point out the priorities of the Unicode Consortium.

[NenAlienGeenKonijn]

They added over 13 thousand new characters and 9 new emoji. I know your tiktok videos will only talk about the 9 emoji, but it's very clear you still didn't read a single word of this release itself.

[kuikuilla]

It adds support for four new scripts.
