@pixelpusher220 @feditips It's true, and not just for Mastodon. Emojis in general are less than ideal for screen readers.

There are YouTube videos that provide real examples of how emojis are read by screen readers. It can be very ugly to hear.

I have just checked on this with a blind accessibility person I know who has written a guide to using Mastodon through a screen reader.

According to them, one emoji is okay (and they even use one emoji on their username themselves).

More than one is a problem though, so it should be strictly one emoji at most.
