    Hello Wilfred!

    It didn't split mine. The text message that followed the
    sticker was a seperate one. If you click on a sticker in
    the selection window it's send immediately to the
    channel (at least in my version of the desktop client).

    I hadn't used a sticker in a long time. I was a bit surprised
    that it posts as soon as one is selected. It's easy to send
    the wrong one.

    Bottom line, I think they are probably ok in private messages
    where the related post is maintained easier. In a group
    thread where messages arrive from many different people the
    relevance of a sticker could be lost - especially if there is
    no context associated with one.

    BTW.. my android app for the Blackberry doesn't provide an
    option to select stickers/gifs. It only offers the emojies;
    that's probably a very good thing. ;)

    Hi August,

    Also because you don't see the full ress version untill after you have sent it.

    I agree.


    Bye, Wilfred.
