CLUSTER EMOJI-EMOJIS-PICKER · 14 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2018-09-07

Emoji search and picker tools

This cluster consists of emoji lookup and clipboard utilities spanning web apps, desktop pickers, terminal browsers, and even a GNOME extension. Dated entries before the index start appear as a steady, low-frequency trickle from 2018 through 2026, with most years contributing a single member and no concentrated surge. Traction leaders—gnome-shell-extension-emoji-copy, latuicon, and Flemozi—all show zero stars, indicating no member has yet gained notable public traction.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 14 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.
