History

Issues
Issues relating to "Emotes" are maintained on the bug tracker. Issues should be reported and viewed there.
Trivia
- It actually does not matter whether the player is submerged (partially or fully) in a liquid (water or lava), flying, falling, levitating, sneaking, or on dry land, just as long as the player isn't riding anything, the player would still perform the emote.
- In the crossover fighting game Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, the simple clap emote is used for Steve's clap animation when he loses a battle or if a player resigns from a battle, resulting in a "No Contest" screen.
- The "Celebrate" emote was shown at MINECON Live 2019, but has not been made available.[2]
