Does anyone know the exact reasons for emojis showing as "??" on every desktop browser and phone I read messages on? We only see the "regular" icons below. I thought it was people on iPhones adding their own icons that other platofrms didn't have, but seems to be the case with other people using other desktop browsers. I'm guessing it's meant to be a UTF-8 code, but reading the course code for the page even, I'm sure they are "real" question marks, so my browser couldn't possibly interpret them as anything else if it wanted to..?
Trying it on Chrome and Firefox under Linux, and Chrome on Android on the m. site, everything shows just straight question marks. |

Yes, but I mean technically why. Why do some people still see them reading back the same messages, when I don't? |

I don't think anybody sees them as the actually emojis do they?
The site just doesn't handle them and stores them as ??
It would be good if FAB would be updated to allow unicode emojis seeing as they are universal standard. |

Then they would loose one of the features of being a site supporter i guess
Its bad enough there is a load of hidden ones as there is |
