Hello! (*・ω・)ﾉ
I think it would be beneficial to actually remove several of the emojis we use here. While many of the categories are okay, I am particularly concerned about some of the animal categories, with the cats group being the worst offender. Many of the emoticons are identical to one another, making the list unnecessarily long and confusing. For example, : angry : and : aggravated : are
and :aggravated: respectively. There are many other examples of this, such as : welcome : and : welcomeback : ( :Welcome: and :WelcomeBack: ) , as well as : smilej : and : smilegif : ( :smilej: and 
) . Not only are the emoticons themselves repetitive, but the things that they are meant to represent are also often very redundant. If we return to the first example, "Angry" and "Aggravated" are synonyms. The two can be used interchangeably, so having two separate emojis for them is not really necessary.
The inclusion of these duplicates makes these areas of the emoji menu vastly more confusing to navigate. Because of this lack of simplicity, people are likely less inclined to use the emojis that they may otherwise very much enjoy. These categories of emojis (wolves, cats, panthera, etc) also reflect the kintypes of a large portion of Kinmunity's users. And while representing individuals with those kintypes was a wonderful inclusion, it is rendered fruitless if the interface in which they are used is not very easily operated. Because of this, I feel it would be beneficial to remove any duplicate emojis to clear up the cluttered menu.
Thank you for your consideration! (* ^ ω ^)
