Apple emojis only work in Chromium.

Is there a way to make it work system-wide and in all programs (in firefox too)?
I use Manjaro KDE

They also don't work in some websites, I think it may be temporary.

Here's a side-by-side comparison.

I have emojipedia pulled up to the left which is rendering the emoijs fine, but GitHub to the right which isn't.

Hmmm, well, they work on Firefox for me.

There are a few missing ones, but they're missing in Chromium too.

The problem might be that you use KDE. I use i3wm/Gnome

Hey @harshhhdev. This has something to do with your browser's "user agent". Apple emojis will only render on Github pages when a macOS User Agent is used.

@samuelngs ahhhh, ok. Thanks.

Is there any possible way to change that?

@harshhhdev I think any user-agent changer extension should do the work. I'm using User-Agent Switcher and Manager myself. I've put the link below, if you're interested you can check it out.

Ah, I figured out a way to get it working :)

if anybody wants to know, just go into inspect element.

Click the three dots next to the settings logo.

Go to useragent, disable select automatically.

Now, go down here and make it Chrome - Mac
