From another Android: 🤷‍♂️

Basically same shrug emoji. Save the post and...

EDIT: yep turns it into woman shrug emoji and female icon.

So let's just assume @duluth and @Kirwan are feminists?

🤣🤣🤣

So shrug is translated to wtf dude?

piston wristed gibbons

I stand corrected. Assumed it was female icon and dark theme made it unclear until I zoomed right in

I'm on iPad, and see that weird emoji set. That's why I posted a screenshot, cos I reckon we all see different things depending on platform.

That must be the reason some posters on here don't appear agree with everything I say or think. Obviously a platform error.

Emojis are a standard that get slightly implemented differently by each operating system. IOS famously has shit versions, particularly the gun which they turned into a water pistol.

That said, the forum software might be involved as well.

Not being a teenaged girl, my care factor is pretty low.

Yep, that was my attempt humour/irony.

Glad it wasn’t lost on you.

Looks like a dude.

I think it's working now?

A little disappointed the gay family emoji only comes in one skin tone though

On ios I was seeing borders but they have gone. The preview post and the post itself are showing the correct icons. The thread preview (from the category, unread, recent etc) still shows a broken emoji but I don't care

It looks like it was trying to load the emoji's on http instead of https. I have no idea what icon pack it was resolving or how it was hitting it

Can someone else do a few tests in here please?

The female symbol is .

So yeah, safe to say there are a few unicode differences between Android and the pack loaded here, but emojis are like that.

Tried writing a search engine for emojis in an API years ago. Can take years for everyone to agree but at least all parties agreed on "banana"
