for example when I type :cringe and it opens the menu for me to browse, it pulls up like 200 emotes most of which don't even have half of the word cringe in them, just way, way too many results so I couldn't find the ones actually tagged with the keyword. Am I doin something wrong?

Love the new system, thanks so much for the hard work! I think something in the searching algorithm is a bit loose? I don't know how to code in the slightest so idunno but something sure isn't right

    Yeah i noticed that when i implemented it; The js library for the inline emojis has a search functionality, and it basically finds all emojis with name/keywords that contains the letters that you are searching for, and ranks them as most matching to least. So searching 'cringe' will search for all emojis that have the letters 'c' 'r' 'i' ..., with the top ranked emojis having the most letters and in typed order.

    I tried to work around it a bit but the library doesn't have any hooks for it as far as i saw.
