Show HN: Ditch your macOS emoji picker

Nice work! You’re right: the native picker built into macOS is indeed horrible for users who prefer the keyboard.<p>Minor caveat: Should you ever decide to tap into the German-speaking market, consider localizing the product name. In German, Mumu is slang for “pussy”.

Hi HN!<p>The maker of Mumu here.<p>I made Mumu because I couldn&#x27;t count how much time I was frustrated by an emoji picker. Picking the right emoji has been immersed in my daily workflow for a long time. So I know it needs a change.<p>It&#x27;s a native app on top of Swift. Not a SwiftUI yet, but probably interested to research more about its reliability.<p>Let me know if you have any questions or feedback about it. Cheers!

Anyone know how the native one manages to be so slow?
