There are forks of Nix. Perhaps you might like Lix.

I’ve seen semantic commits done with emojis which is cute but also annoying, because they’re not as easy to type or grep for.

Semantic commits can be nice, but they can also invite bikeshedding about what’s a “feature” and what’s a “bug fix”, etc.

Not saying they aren’t nice, and if folks are using them and liking them, keep going. But if you haven’t used them before on a team, then just be aware that’s a thing than can happen.
