Another, probably better solution might have been not to preselect the top hit in the emoji suggestion box, so merely typing whatever you want (be it :d
or :D
) works as supposed to — and then if you _do_ actually want an emoji, you can just press down and enter to select.
Or not trigger on single letter ones, but that might be a little bit awkward for heavy emoji users.
this still happens for me in 1.2.14, but only if text typed before the emoji
@netman69 , happens to me too
