Missing settings option to disable emoji autocompletion

[heaven]

This was introduced in #627, but this addition ignores the people who don't need this and there's no option to disable this popup.

I don't want to disable "replace emoji" but only need to disable this annoying popup with emojis that appears on every :. This is incredibly annoying, especially when writing code snippets (why does it appear in ``` blocks?) and also considering the second Esc key closes the chat. There are people who use Telegram not only for sending smiles.

Reporting as bug because this is a bug in the UX. There should be a separate option to disable this autocompletion.

Did you try to disable Suggest emoji replacements option?

@23rd hi, not the replacement but the popup that appears every time I enter ":".

Please, puh-lease make this pop-up optional. It is immensely annoying and totally unnecessary to anyone using Telegram for anything useful.

And still I can't understand what the matter is to disable the Suggest emoji replacements option.

Agreed, as ruby developer I'm often using symbols like symbol == :test in chat and I really-really hate emoji popup.

This bug still exists.

This bug still exists.

#6516 (comment)

Can't understand why this issue is still open, this option does what is described in the first post: disables the popup, but doesn't disable the replacement.
