Proposal

Please re-state the problem that we are trying to solve in this issue.

Typing :finger_heart does not show up any emoji

What is the root cause of that problem?

We are not adding finger_heart here

App/assets/emojis/en.ts

Line 546 in bfe3b75

keywords: ['hand', 'finger', 'thumb', 'crossed', 'gesture'],

What changes do you think we should make in order to solve the problem?

We should add finger_heart here in keywords

App/assets/emojis/en.ts

Line 546 in bfe3b75

keywords: ['hand', 'finger', 'thumb', 'crossed', 'gesture'],

Optional: We can also add Spanish translation and we can also add any other words we want to use for this emoji

What alternative solutions did you explore? (Optional)

We can change the name here to finger_heart

App/assets/emojis/common.ts

Line 843 in 5d9e88c

name: 'hand_with_index_finger_and_thumb_crossed',
