If you type the letter “i” and it autocorrects to an “A” with a symbol

I think the answer is to delay upgrading till you have to. I'm on iOS 10.3 on the phone, Mavericks on the Macbook, both gadgets >3 yrs old and have almost no issues. I may have to upgrade Mavericks in a bit as things are starting to become incompatible but will prob go to 10.11 or 10.12, not 10.13.

(edit - I'm on iPhone 5 which doesn't get iOS 11 which may have saved me)

Two reasons why this is a colossally bad idea:

- Mavericks is old enough that it hasn’t received any security updates in over a year

- You’re falling way behind on emoji support (but maybe you haven’t noticed if you spend all your time on Hacker News, since apparently emojis get stripped out of posts here)

The fact that we have come to a time where anyone would consider it a "colossally bad idea" not to upgrade an OS because of substandard emoji support makes me weep for the future.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and proffer that maybe the comment you've replied to was tongue-in-cheek.
