   it's interesting that emacs on macOS does not do unicode by default. http://xahlee.info/comp/unicode_index.html

      @xahlee by interesting you mean the sloppy oversight of an operating system apparently maintained by chimpanzees?

         @jeremiah between mac and emacs, that'd be emacs.

         but there's something more sinister going on.

         FSF GNU emacs disabled displaying color emoji on Mac, because emacs on linux can't do it

            @xahlee whoa! what a bunch of fucking douchebags! Did they even consider that maybe the existence of such a feature set disparity would inspire some penguinista to get off their ass and add color emoji under linux, bsd, et al.?

            This is yet another instance of the same insane stupidity of equalizing outcomes instead of opportunities / possibilities.

      solution.
      download font “symbola” at http://xahlee.info/comp/unicode_font_download.html
      then put in #emacs init see bottom http://ergoemacs.org/emacs/emacs_list_and_set_font.html
