WinKey+period to enter emoji and other Unicode characters. I’ve got some workarounds, but they are all just slightly kludgy, especially with the Wayland clipboard.
if you’re using fcitx to manage input methods, you can enable the unicode module, which lets you bind a shortcut to input unicode characters using a search box. it’s quite handy, though most people don’t use fcitx as it’s not needed for simple appending input methods, like the US QWERTY keyboard
Like… Fredesktop clipboards or is there some Wayland feature causing trouble. B/c my understanding was wms define clipboard functionality generally using freedesktop spec as the base so curious how Wayland is causing trouble.

What desktop environment are you using? That shortcut is already available in KDE Plasma 5/6.
you just made me happy on fedora, thanks! 😀
TIL! Sweet! If I can use emojis on my desktop, I have less reason to wreck my thumbs on my phone! :D
(But hey classic emoticons are 4eva! Lol)
There are some decent ones out there. That Windows shortcut always sucked ass compared to their character map, and that wasn’t great either.
