@bea this showed up as 👩❤️👩 on amaroq tho? what gives

@bea ugh i hate the react devtools extension but this might be a job for react devtools extension

@bea afaict it is literally just inserting the woman + heart + woman emojis with no zwj?? presuming react is giving me the whole string in its devtools—this is copy+pasted glitch.social/media/laCPDKaos6

@bea i would expect woman to be 2 characters because JS is UTF-16

@kibi @bea can confirm the 'woman' emoji is two characters in javascript

@bea @kibi it's strange cos the unified emoji shows up properly in my browser (Win10 latest Chrome), but when i copy it and paste it into the dev console (or anywhere else for that matter), it splits back into 👩❤👩

@kibi @bea ...and then, of course, rejoins into the unified emoji when i hit post. smh

@bea @typhlosion Yep masto + update is just not including ZWJs in its backend processing for some reason which is Hecked, and EmojiOne just Doesn't Care (but everyone else obvs does)

@typhlosion @bea what's funny/interesting is that WOMAN+HEART+VS-16+WOMAN breaks it somehow because i *believe* that WOMAN+ZWJ+HEART+VS-16+ZWJ+WOMAN is the canonical Unicode sequence

@bea @typhlosion (because HEAVY BLACK HEART also has a text representation)

@kibi @bea can i just sidebar to say that HEAVY BLACK HEART is one of my favorite names for a codepoint

Follow

@typhlosion @kibi @bea it sounds a snippet of a PR statement for a metal band

"it is with a heavy black heart that i must announce my retirement from iron maiden"
