If you’re on a Mac and you want to change the keyboard shortcut for showing the emoji picker, e.g., to ⌘E, you can do so from Settings → Keyboard → Keyboard Shortcuts… → App Shortcuts → All Applications.

Press the + button to add a shortcut and, in the Menu title textbox, enter (exactly):

Emoji & Symbols

Hit Done and you’re, umm, done.

This is useful when using a non-Apple external keyboard and ⌘^space is too verbose.
