I wish Apple would change the default emoji colour from yellow to a more natural skin tone.

Cirrhosis of the liver yellow is plain awful!

There would an instant internet (and probably elsewhere) meltdown if Apple picked a race/color for Emoji.

Yeah, it’s explicitly not supposed to look lifelike.

Doesn't Apple usually provide a choice of colors once you select an emoji?

Yeah, but default is still the horrid bile yellow. So unless you have already changed the colour, emojis appearing on the suggestion bar are still in yellow.

And that’s on purpose.

What skin color do you think should be the default, and why?

I’d rather it be blue than bright yellow.
