See screen shot for example. In this case it is a weird rainbow, but I have also seen other things like a big stop sign and other strange stuff. Emoji support is inconsistent: - google chrome title is good - firefox title is good - google chrome contents, is bad, black&white ascii icon - fiefox contents, is ok, not the same icon as in the title - thunderbird content is ok, but too huge To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/thunderbird/+bug/1779569/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
