What is the difference between an emoticon and an emoji?

An emoticon is made from keyboard characters, like :-) or :D. An emoji is a Unicode character such as 😊 or 🎉 with platform-specific artwork.

Do people still use emoticons?

Yes. They are still common in email, developer communities, retro-style posts, and places where plain text feels more natural than colorful emoji.

Where can I paste these emoticons?

Anywhere that accepts text: chat apps, social profiles, documents, code comments, forums, and email.
