I think it is system-wide. At least I've not encountered any input field where it doesn't work. Even Microsoft Office, which uses its own input routines, supports it.
It doesn't work in every app sadly. Qt based apps for example

#412The customer's words echoed in his mind. 'robert at lightbulb emoji dot kz, but with a real lightbulb emoji.' The clerk had registered thousands, maybe tens of thousands of e-mails into the Nordstrom Rack Nordy Rewards program, and he had seen it all, but this, this was something entirely new. This wasn't the single letter username or the overly sexual address or the gmail address with the plus sign, all mildly inter…
By the way, we already have an "emoji button" on our keyboards: on Windows, it's the Win+. keystroke. Try it if your Windows 10 is updated enough.

On my work computer on Win10 it just opens up the magnifier :(

Please don't tell me there exists genuine attempts to "cancel" the .io domain.
Not everything has to be “cancelled” but if you are buying a domain, you should probably inform yourselves of what that TLD represents since people you’re communicating with might and might not look too favorably on its use.
Domains often have little connection to their intended meaning.

Yeah. Try using wildcard email accounts together with a uncommon TLD, and people ask me if I work at their place all the time. Last time I booked a car at Hertz: > Me: My email is hertz@capableweb.work > Agent: Woah, you work here at Hertz? That's so cool > Me: sure, can you remind me of the employee discount again? So many email validations fail with a uncommon gTLD that I started switching everything to a .com doma…
On just meeting a girl in school whose last name was the first name of a lead actor in a popular TV show, I started blurting out “Are you related to X” and my brain was already sending X to my mouth before I realized no, stupid, that’s not how names work. Turns out she’s a nice girl, and she answered happily, “no, but that would be cool”. I smiled back while I died a little inside. It’s always possible the person fig…

#417This is a fun hack, but there is no way I would get involved in providing any form of commercial email service for $1440 arr. I wouldn't do it for $1440 a _day_. Everything involved with email is pain. I wish you luck.
Note that OP is actually generating loss at this point - 300 domains at $8 equals $2400, which is in itself bigger than the income. Can you maybe share what problems OP might have? I have toyed with an idea of starting something similar and would love to know what I'm getting into.

You got nothing on my firstname@lastname.technology email. Can't register at half the sites, and if you can register sometimes you can't log in. Banana Republic, in particular, lets me log in through one login flow, but not the one that's integrated into the checkout process.
Ah! What a coincidence — I registered my Banana Republic account with a gmail "+" email (eg, my_email+bananarepublic@gmail.com) as is my standard practice with retail accounts, and I have the same login issues. It's quite odd, but I'm glad it's not just me!

I use an email address that ends in .io and the amount of people that still ask me ".io? are you sure that's correct?" never ceases to amaze me.
