I quite like them in GitHub release descriptions, e.g. those by Ghost CMS https://github.com/TryGhost/Ghost/releases/tag/v5.52.0


I find these a visual noise. What can be achieved with a subheading "Bug fixes", "Features" etc. is repeated in all lines.


Why the emojis are visual noise but "Bug Fix" wouldn't be?


Color attracts the eye.


That’s a particularly confusing example as only 3 are actually emoji and the other 7 are inline images.
