So it's strange that I already don't use emojis? Sometimes I will write "haha" or ":)" in chats, and that's about it. That was all I needed when I was in my 20s, and I see no need to change that in my 30s. It probably helps that I don't have social media, except HN and occasionally Reddit.

I didn't know this made me an outlier. Whenever someone uses a lot of emojis, I assume they are young, or wanting to seem young.
