I clapped for at bigger-emoji line. But I'm over 40 and have to squint to read the pictograms my wife and kids send me.

Ah that's a good point. My eyes are still at a point where one prescription works for near and far vision.

If it's an improvement it's an improvement and it might as well be as good as it can, but "we caught up to facebook messenger" doesn't feel that exciting to me.

I was really hoping for the iMessage on Android rumors to pan out, but now that they've gone and created an iMessage extensions system it seems a lot less possible moving forward.

I'm young, and I don't have to squint for the emoji I recognise, but some of them are more intricately detailed, and so it's difficult to figure them out without squinting. This is a welcome improvement.
