Turn off all emojis
I find nearly all emojis very irritating - I really don't want to see ANY pictures anywhere. I'd rather see the text versions like :) and :S and translate them into my own images in my head - but the only options I've ever been able to find are to turn off emojis I create. There doesn't seem to be one to turn off other people's emojis from my viewing, unlike in Slack (where I'm quite content to see :tada: and :heart: rather than the actual emojis) - why does Discord require everyone to see them? It's bothersome enough that I couldn't continue to use Discord after trying it out, and have been cut off from a lot of communication I would like to be able to be a part of (since nearly everyone else in one community I'm in has switched from IRC to a Discord server). Please make this simple option available to those of us who find emojis difficult to handle.

bro. what? this is pointless. -2 -
This isn't pointless, it's a user preference just like dark mode.
There's a huge difference between entirely disabling something for everyone and giving users a toggle option to do what chat programs used to allow as a standard.
Rather, I'd go one step further and say you should be allowed to blacklist certain emoji (both custom emotes and standard ones like :joy:). and replace others with your own custom version that only you see.

I wouldn't mind being able to replace emojis, necessarily - I've found the Apple style are the only ones that don't repulse me (something about the gentle curves with the slight 3-D hints), so if I could pick some of those to replace the (what appear to me as extremely ugly) default ones I want to see and block everything else to show just the text bits, that would be awesome.
But if all they can do is just turn off all emojis from a client's view, that would work for me too - I'd just like to be able to use Discord without squirming or trying to visually dodge people's emoji-laden chat lines, and think that should be a standard option. I find text so much easier to deal with mentally, and this should be easy to implement if Discord has any accessibility options built-in.
(And if it weren't obvious, I'm not trying to ask for an option to affect everyone else's abilities to see emoji, just to allow each client to choose whether to see them or not.)
