Some tips:
- Don’t put a confuse smiley face at the end of an affirmative sentence_ it’s weird for the reader. 🤨
- Put a winky smiley face emoji when you give advice. 😉

- Avoid tongue-tied smiley faces that may have a completely different connotation. 😛
- Sprinkle your posts with positive vibes with at least one happy smiley. 😁 – except of course when the topic is serious.
