Emojis can be distracting. I am ok having them in general. However, what is really annoying to me is the use of GitHub emojis, like :star: (not sure that's a real one). As sometimes this gets rendered indeed as :star:, and not as ⭐.
So if we indeed use emojis in things like commit messages, then at least use unicode emojis, so that they can be rendered properly on all systems.
