Instagram bio emojis
Bio emojis have one constraint the rest of the site does not: space. Instagram shows 150 characters and truncates the preview much earlier, so every emoji has to earn its place.
What works: one emoji as a bullet before each line, or two or three at the end as a signature. What does not: a wall of them at the top, which reads as spam and pushes the actual text out of the preview.
