    Or just personal to me.

    On a number of occasions some of the posts I read are littered with words (emoji6) and (emoji1) combined with white numbers in pale blue boxes.

    Does this happen to others or just me?

    No, I get that too. I think it's small number of people using a specific app or something (tapatalk? whatever that is). Seems to be when they use numerical characters rather than typing out the numbers, eg "3" instead of "three".

    I suspect they are control sequences which on some platforms would be interpreted as emojis or something. I use Chrome which displays them as the the OP says.
