Most emojis are outside of character set UTF-8, which is, to my knowledge, what Scratch supports

Basically, think of UTF as Unicode range, Unicode being a universally available set of characters to use.
So, these are divided into ranges. Most alphabets are supported by range UTF-8 and up. Now, most emojis, they’re UTF-16 and up, i believe, and you can only use up to what your site supports. Scratch supporting up to UTF-8, anything over UTF-8, won’t be supported. Everything under it, however, is supported.

seems like you seem slightly comfused.

Ill explain this in a even easier to understand way: lets say you are the programming (not programmer btw) for scratch. You listen to “words” (in this case, Unicode) and draw out the correct drawing. If I say “Apple” you would understand and draw that, same with banana, sushi, cat. HOWEVER, if I say this word (click the link since its too long to write here, its 180k letters long), you OBVIOUSLY would have no idea what to draw. Same here, Any word above UTF-8 (so something like “any word with more then 30 letters”) is unable to be recognized by the scratch programming.

Scratch cant support UTF-16, just like how you wouldn't be able to read (or draw, since if u cant read it, you cant even know what it means) any word with over a few thousand characters.

Ha, ok back on topic now..

(edit, the emoji removed it ;( )
Most unicode characters are over 16 UTF. They probably did this to prevent bad emojis like eggplant, etc. you know

Then in what case would you need to use the basketball emoji without being able to simply use the word “basketball”?
To be fair, you can apply this same logic to other emojis as well, but when?

I don't know the actual reason, but it's not UTF-8. (Also the more technical name for this is the Basic Multilingual Plane, but it's not that important. And yes, this is copy and pasted.)
