I think we remember that differently. At the time I recall people caring quite a lot. You can find articles written about it on just about every mainstream media organization.

I'm still a bit unclear on your position towards the current changes. Your post makes it sound like you oppose changes in general, but your tone makes me think it's specific to the change from 2016. How do you feel about the current changes?

People cared, but not the people making the changes.

I think the change back is good and we should very strongly push for immutable emoji. The first one was a massive mistake and years of using the squirt gun doesn’t justify it.
