This is a neat idea! I love how you made a public repository of all available emoji domain names with .to. Thanks! :D Any plans to make this available for other TLDs too when they're possible, and, any plans to make similar projects for list of common English words?
@arunsathiya when more TLDs open up emoji support and there are enough available (unlike for example .ws) then yeah I'll probably add them. Pretty straight forward now I've got everything else set up for it.
I don't have any plans for common English words. I think there's too many and all the good ones are already gone anyway. I will reconsider if new TLDs arrive.
@theharshin Haha looks like it. We update the list every hour, but I'll see if I can speed that up.

Oh, to those people trying this on Google Chrome, Chrome wouldn't show emoji domains on your address bar. They don't do punycode for displaying UNICODE characters in ASCII. Firefox still does this, has to be enabled at about:config. Search for "punycode" and set that to "true".
@arunsathiya Yeah I think that's a recent change due to security concerns. Some unicode characters look a lot like regular characters so someone could register a domain that looks like paypal.com but is actually something else.
I don't see why regular emoji couldn't be whitelisted though. I expect they will change that at some point.
For what it's wroth, the emoji domains do still work in browsers Chrome. Sites load fine. They just don't show up as visually pleasing.

@marckohlbrugge Exactly. Whitelisting regular emoji should happen soon.
Love seeing innovation in this space!
Of course, this is something you can only pull off during the "gold rush" period of new registration, but it's a really clever take on that concept. ❤️ it. Onward and upward for Emoji Domains!
Shout out to @flarup by the way for his excellent Emoji vector resources (launched on PH yesterday). I used them for the logo and some of the marketing material you see.
Their search feature does not allow for multiple emojis. Seems like a win-win, you have more options for the user and potentially more sales. But the combo of the misleading tagline, the slow search, and the lack of options makes this a no-go for me.
Pros:
I like the idea
Cons:
This is definitely not "all emoji domains" only those on the .to TLD
