Description

Some emojis from earlier unicode standards display as black-and-white fallback characters instead of their emoji glyphs. The following emoji are the specific ones I am having trouble with (but are not the only ones affected): ❄, ☣, ☠. They render properly in both notepad and chrome.

  • Can you reproduce the issue?

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open Mark Text
  2. Insert any of the specified emojis above
  3. Behold

Expected behavior:
Full-color emoji

Actual behavior:
Unicode fallback characters

I did not test every single emoji, but the ones originating from older standards seem to be the victims.
