I specifically attempted to get a job at Discord so I could submit a PR to make giant emojis be a toggle setting rather than automatic. I know the feeling.

(If anyone works at Discord, please me and the rest of my server are begging you)

I don't know if this helps but I've been adding a full stop next to emoji exactly for this. It doesn't fix it for ~new people but it's something for yourself?

		This is what I’ve been forced to do for years and I’m sick of it lol

Discord is an electon app IIRC so in theory it should be possible to make a client side mod which fixes this. Not sure if that would result in your account getting banned though...

What are you referring to? You can disable the automatic conversion of :) to an emoji, for example.

		I think it refers to only sending an emoji, it's shown as a large icon.
