Like that Malvina Reynolds song, Little Boxes.

Remember? Little boxes on the hillside, little boxes made of tickey tackey and they all look just the same?

There is certainly a more uniform look to emoji design now, but there are still some differences and interpretations can vary.

I figured it's a move to handheld applethings - we oldies with W7 desktops using IE11 enjoyed the yellow square things, but millennials with appletoys need their fix and they outnumber us. Pity we can't have both.

They are still yellow on my tablet, just gumdrop-shaped now.
