I was thinking the same thing. Why not limit input through the api to 1 grapheme if misuse is the worry? Or why accept all emoji and not a sensible sublist like Notion?

The end of The article describes how 1 grapheme is a mostly good solution except that not all emoji work with the JS used to validate that, and the JS to validate it isn’t available in Firefox.

But this would be a back-end check, not a front-end check. Why would lack of support in Firefox matter?
