I guess GIFs aren’t supported but starting today, when I send an emoji in Google Messages (beta) it continuously spins around and bounces. I’m not sure how I feel about that.
EDIT: Looks like there is a website that details all the animations. https://googlefonts.github.io/noto-emoji-animation/
The blobs were the ultimate emojis, and you cannot change my mind
My wife and I fell in love over the blobs. I keep screenshots of them on my phone so I can text her using them to this today. It’s clunky, but they’re exactly the ones I want to use sometimes.
You know that emoji kitchen on Gboard supports the blob?
Oh wow, I did not know that! They don’t seem to be the animated versions that I’m a little more familiar with. That was years ago and I don’t remember exactly how I produced these.
