About

Emote is a popup emoji picker for Linux. Open it with a keyboard shortcut, then search by name or browse the categories. Select an emoji to copy it, or turn on automatic paste to insert it into the app you’re using. Your recently used emojis stay at the top. You can select several emojis at once, choose a skin tone, and change the emoji size and font.
