In Saudi Arabia, sending a red heart can be considered a “crime of harassment” under certain circumstances. That is why there they use the white heart in emoji.

In Chile, Uruguay and Paraguay, yes, they prefer the smiling face and its two tilt variants: 😂🤣.
In Bolivia and Guyana, however, they prefer the emoji of their flags. Venezuela, due to the flow of aid that is needed due to its political context, prioritizes the use of hands in prayer: 🙏.
