Mark as abandoned?

[hassankhan]

EmojiOne seems to support pretty much everything - does anyone even use this anymore?

[Menelion]

Oh well, I even don't know about EmojiOne :(. Is it your new project?

[hassankhan]

It's not mine - its here, seems to have most of the options this has and then some.

I just don't do a lot of frontend any more, haven't had the chance to give this the attention it needs and doubt I will be able to in the foreseeable future. It's had a nice long run, and I'm glad it's helped so many people, but I just don't have time any more to maintain this :(

Might be a good idea I just found this project through google searches and tried it out before seeing this issue and learning about emojione which covered my needs

[jlsjonas]

hmm... looks like you're not the only one @kevzettler
(and after a quick comparison I was opting for emojify)
but, ye, since it would need a good "spring cleaning" at least (mostly related to cdn/guides, probably) and you've ( @hassankhan ) indicated that you don't have enough time to maintain this repo (and neither do I, sadly enough) I'd also vote to put a deprecation/abandoned/looking for maintainer notice in the readme

Yes. I use this in my project. Emojione emojis's graphics looks not as good
as this one. Emojify gives native feeling like that of WhatsApp and other
chatting platforms.

@azharuniverse that was my opinion about emojione 2,
I'm currently using twemoji as alternative, although I'm not 100% convinced either

[adam-lynch]

I still use this in production. Eventually I / my team will put some effort to help unite these projects. I mean we'd eventually like our users to be able to switch between emoji sets (based on the same set of emoji keywords), etc.

EmojiOne's minified JS file is 222kB. emojify.js by contrast is 13kB.

Some folk don't need complex unicode conversion, they just need a way of converting :smile: text into 😄. For this reason I think emojify.js needs to live!
