Mobile apps need to only show emojis for `:emoji:`, not regular smileys
Follow-up from webapp#781 (closed) to fix in webapp2229308 and webapp2229321 apps.
This comes up occasionally on a channel I founded, with sometimes amusing results. Here's a screenshot of the iOS client rendering "xdelta" and "xor" with smileys. Fun, but not quite what you intended.
Potential solutions
- Emoji logic should be smarter and not render in the middle of the word
- Most likely we will just disable emoticons decorating to emojis like we did in https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitter/webapp/issues/781
This report comes via a suggestion on twitter to start a new issue rather than append this to the existing (closed) issue.
