There are various ways to input emoji (emoticons) in applications.

There are two main ways to input emoji.

  1. using the native GUI toolkit support
  2. using ibus support

GNOME

Gtk 3 and 4 generally support Emoji input via Ctrl+Period (Ctrl-.), which brings up an emoji chooser UI.

In almost any application (eg browsers) you can also use ibus Emoji input:

  • To activate ibus Emoji mode:
    • in Fedora 37 and later press Super+Period
    • in Fedora 36 and earlier press Ctrl+Period (Ctrl-.)
  • Then an "e" prompt appears.
  • Either enter a keyword in pre-edit and then space to see candidates
  • or press Space to bring up the Emoji selector.

Note that the ibus emoji input is not available in Live images (see bug).

KDE

Qt supports Emoji input via Super+Period (Win-.).

Qt apps currently have emoji font selection issues:

  • tend to prefer monochrome emoji to color (bug)
  • sometimes fail to render emoji (bug)

LibreOffice

Sometimes monochrome emoji are preferred to colored emoji.
