Why would you embed some shit codepen iframes instead of the unicode character??


> Update: At some point, WordPress started automatically converting emoji in this blog post to <img>s. I’ve replaced some of the examples with CodePens to make it clearer what’s going on. Of course, the fact that WordPress feels compelled to use <img>s instead of native emoji kind of proves my point


My bad. My frustration with the iframes stopped me reading.

Edit: Can't you downvote your own comments??
