How to Disable Firefox's New Emoji Picker

> I don't really write any emojis in anything I use a browser for anyways

Proceeds to use an emoji as favicon :D

> On GNOME we already have a global shortcut for some emoji picker, I think it's Super + , or something

Actually, on most distros, the default keyboard shortcut for the emoji picker on GNOME/GTK is ctrl-. (same as the Firefox shortcut). This only works on apps that support it. Older Firefox versions did not support GNOME's emoji picker at all, but Firefox 150 supports GNOME's emoji picker using the expected keyboard shortcut.

An Emoji picker should be an OS-level feature. If the OS doesn’t provide the feature, then that is the OS’s decision to make, and the browser should respect it.

Why would I want text input in one app to have a feature that text input in other apps lacks?

I'm on Firefox 150.0.1 on Windows, and Ctrl+. consistently opens up the Firefox Multi-Account Containers panel, regardless of hitting that shortcut while focusing this same text box I'm writing on right now, or not.

So this sounds like not working as expected I guess.

Odd, I am on firefox 150, and Ctrl + . doesn't seem to do anything.

Is Firefox turning into Edge?

The list of things I don't want in a browser is growing.

Perhaps they need to consider a "basic" version

> Annoyingly enough, Mozilla decided to add a emoji picker to Firefox 150, which fair enough, probably some people like

Mozilla is really focusing on how to break the Google monopoly.

With the POWER of the Emoji, Mozilla will succeed here. I ... suppose?

The Firefox UI is getting worse and worse with every version, because they are constantly adding more useless features. Any time you accidentally hit the wrong button, it launches something, because everything is a shortcut now. The latest being their split tabs, which I also had to disable. Maybe they should stop trying to turn their browser into an OS.
