People use words to express their feelings rather than emojis.
Emojis are less serious and a comment that uses them extensively is taken much less seriously than a comment without emojis.

Perhaps this impression is due to the fact that young social media users have devalued these images. You may have seen short messages in various communities consisting of many emoticons. Perhaps the sequence of images means something, but is perceived as spam.
