I believe EmojiOne Mozilla (and most proper emoji-containing fonts) have
issues with being overridden by DejaVu's black and white glyphs.

So you see a weird mix of black and white glyphs (from DejaVu Sans and
Mono and Serif etc) and full-color (from EmojiOne Mozilla) emojis.

I guess Ubuntu decided this was a problem, but now we have no full-color
emojis at all.

Further explanation copy and pasted from here:

https://github.com/eosrei/emojione-color-font#install-on-linux

"The default serif, sans-serif and monospace font for most Linux
distributions is DejaVu. DejaVu includes a wide range of symbols which
override the EmojiOne Color characters."
