Plain emoji are replaced by emoji picker

[tobiasKaminsky]

I am kind of oldschool, thus I often write :-).
When I do this in NC26 beta, it is then replaced by first emoji entry when I press enter:

So I know have to always type "some text :-) " to make sure that my oldschool emoji is not being replaced.

GH emoji picker is doing it different: if :-) is not found in list, then it is being ignored.

You can use ESC or a space to stop it as far as I understood:
nextcloud/spreed#8849

But yeah would be very glad if it would not collide 🫥

ESC or space does not make any real difference, as I would still have to remember to press something else after typing an emoji.
It is "just" a better workaround :-)

Btw: another solution would be to resolve ":-)" to 🙂

-.- I heavily disagree there. I do the :P emojis intentionally

Was just an idea, and nothing we need to do :)
WhatsApp Web is replacing it
Signal Desktop App not
