Hello!
I would like to prevent users from using emojis in comments, however I have absolutely no idea how to accomplish that. Have you got any advice, folks?

I'd suspect simply passing hand-entered text through clean() would filter out most or all such things. And if not, you could always go brute-force and use cleanWith() to enforce a strict whitelist of allowed characters (though you'd have to be fairly careful to be inclusive enough of unusual-but-allowable special characters).
Thank you. That would probably the best way.
