Text and emotes

On Twitch, the emote often carries the meaning.

Uncloak reads both: the text with VADER based NLP, and the emotes with a custom mapping of thousands of Twitch emotes, each one classified by our founder. “Sub sunday game Pog” has no sentiment words at all. The emote makes it positive.
