How To Add Emojis On Discord

Types of Emojis on Discord

As you may know, emojis play a big role in Discord, that’s why the platform not only offers the typical set of emojis but also some unique options. First, we have the static emojis. They are those tiny little yellow icons with different emotions. On Discord, users can add custom images to use as emojis. That is why you may have noticed that different servers have their own set of emojis.
Meanwhile, animated emojis are tiny GIFs that loop continuously. They are quite amusing, especially the Pepe and cat ones. However, they will appear locked and you can’t click on them. That’s because you need to have a Discord Nitro subscription to use them. Nitro also allows you to use any kind of emojis, animated or not, across any server.
