  16. Took me forever but I finally got color emoji working everywhere on my machine. And twemoji to boot (sorry but I dislike google's emoji). Looking around there's a tutorial on how to install some svg twemoji font, which…. only works for firefox. instead what I did is grabbed one of those CBDT fonts that people create for changing their android emoji, as that's the same format as the actual noto emoji. I just got the twemoji one and it worked like a charm. Presumably you can use this to get the apple emojis as well if you want (since I'm guessing sbix format isn't supported either).

    To get the twemoji svg font in firefox (not really needed, but I find that it's got newer emoji than the method below):
    sudo apt-add-repository ppa:eosrei/fonts
    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get install fonts-twemoji-svginot

    To get twemoji (or any other emoji font) everywhere on your system (including firefox):
    Go here and download the font of your choice: https://forum.xda-developers.com/general/general/root-stock-emoji-fonts-ios-windows10-t3418801
    Save this xml in " ~/.config/fontconfig/conf.d/01-emoji.conf ": https://pastebin.com/raw/wa2cuwHx
    Replace all instances of "Emoji One" with the name of the font (inside the data, so you need a tool to view font info). If you downloaded the twemoji from that link, then it should be named "Emoji One" already. Others, such as the LG emoji font, may be named differently such as "Emoji IOS9" in which case you'd want to put that instead.
    run "fc-cache -fv" in the terminal if needed to refresh fonts, and then restart your applications.

    Grats, now you have emoji everywhere, in color.

    Edit: On kde you can press super+. (or whatever key you configure) to bring up the emoji picker. If you followed my instructions they should be in color and the font you selected 🙂

  21. Thank you so much! I don't even like using emojis but seeing the blocks or the black and white emojis in comments and elsewhere bothered me a lot. I installed all the recommended emoji fonts on the Arch Wiki and still had problems. The recommended config file in the home directory tree worked great!

  27. Hello Chris, I'm wondering if you can point me in the right direction. I'd like to build a web page and I need it to have a few specific features. Besides the main content, it needs to be able to add links to personal content of others, post on FB, twitter, etc. This would be content others post whether in video form, or txt, on a variety of platforms my page can supply a Link to. Along with a testimonial page I can add too also.
    Suggestions?
