The new iOS18 update for iPhones has also changed a bit the size of the reaction emoticons and they‘re very small now.

I have two phones at work, and with the older one, all the reactions show up...

On my laptop, Edge updated itself again just the other day. Ugh. Not sure what all that entails, yet.

Okay, while I don't like the layout, I FINALLY figured out how to install firefox on my chromebook and my emoji reactions look like they are back!
My usual search engine is google chrome, which forced updated and ever since stopped showing them.
Guess when I'm signing in to CC I have to remember to open firefox.

Thanks! Brave and duck duck go, used to be fine, now, no emojis.

Edge has gotten 5 updates so far since September which caused the issue to begin with. But they haven't addressed the emoticon problem yet.

On Apple products their new operating system iOS18, they seemed to have changed the size of emoticons and they look very small.

Tickets have been logged to the Chromium project but i don't think they consider this a priority i guess. lol

No no, the frequency of updates are standard for Edge but so far they haven't addressed the emoticon problem basically and it's not important enough according to them because they haven't addressed it in the 5 updates they have released so far.

Make sure you all update Firefox to the latest version which is shown in the screenshot below.
There have been some zero-day attacks by Russians exploiting Firefox and Windows, so to get the latest patches, make sure you update Firefox under the Help menu and selecting About.

The Microsoft gods, have updated Edge and the emojis now work!

To update Edge, click on the 3 dots in the top right of the browser.
Go to Help and feedback.
Click About Microsoft Edge.

Run the update from there if it's not started automatically.
The version that's updated is listed below.
Enjoy!

I think Chrome has gotten this fix but i haven't checked or tested.
Edge is a subset of Chrome so Chrome should work too.

Wait, what? Microsoft is reduced to re-skinning somebody else's browser for their flagship OS?

Sad...

Thanks, Eli! Appreciate you staying on the topic. My browser didn't auto update, so without your message I wouldn't have known.
