Is it because of the instance they’re posting from, some kind of “award”, or what?

I think that's how Mbin "badges" new accounts. Not sure how long they're considered new, but all the ones I've seen with green leaves have been 1-2 day old accounts.

Voyager app uses the baby emoji. 👶

Some people just put emojis in their names, I don't block them just because of that, but I end up blocking a lot of people with emojis in their name

It's similar to how when anyone joins a game whose name starts and ends with some mirrored patterns of the the letter 'x' they're likely to be insufferable in some way.
