How does that affect the quality of the article in any way? It's not like they're expressing through emoji, they're just there as bullet points I get that emoji get a lot of hate on reddit since emoji only comments were low effort and that's justified No emoji at all in any form, that's just a stupid ask

It's annoying because it interrupts the flow of reading the text. Let me read an emojii article out loud:

Today I went to RIGHT ARROW the supermarket GROCERY BAG to get some groceries VEGETABLE and I saw EYE my friend WAVING HAND.

How can you read an article filled with emojis without being interrupted in the reading flow?

Practically, you can get browser extensions that remove the emojis. The fact that brightly colored symbol blocks interrupt flow will not change as the culture changes because saturation = attention, contrast = attention and uniqueness = attention are all fundamental principles of perception.

In the same way if there were using a purple script font. It's just unnecessary decoration and I'll gladly pass even though the content is good (usually it's not).
