I can’t see emojis anymore, they don’t work on librewolf.
I first noticed this under a post titled something like “try telling a story using only emojis”. The comments were empty.
If I open the same page in brave browser, they work as intended. I can’t see emojis in apps like libreoffice either. Is there a way to get system-wide emoji support?
(I am on Fedora 42)
Do they work in Firefox?
I had a similar thing happen recently following a NixOS upgrade. I wonder if it’s something that changed in Firefox.
In my case, the solution was to set
useEmbeddedBitmaps = truein fontconfig. Which is unlikely to be directly helpful to you on Fedora, but maybe there’s an equivalent option somewhere?Make sure you have a font installed that supports emoji such as the Noto emoji font.
Installed, it probably is if it works in Brave… it might not be set up right in LibreWolf though.
probably, it works in Signal (the messenger app) as well
Try using a feature complete browser
librewolf is love, librewolf is life
Then live life and love without emojis, we did fine without for most of history <3
