EDIT: So I found out why lemmy.world remains on an older version. Turns out there’s some systems in 0.17.4 that limit bot signups, that are not present in 0.18. So until that limiter’s put in place, this instance remains on an older version.
Lemmy 0.18 supports custom emojis now. Maybe you’ll be able to convince your instance admin to add one.
I bet they’re gifs, like on forums, use custom codes for each of them.
