Hey guys,

I am quite sure that all these emojis weren't "proofread" by any native Japanese designers, but I find all those kanji character emojis hyper-disproportional from designer's perspective(it's really distorted), as well as orientalism from those Japanese seasonal events as displayed. I can't tell what these emojis represent.

I'll be specific.

Japanese disportional letterings
🈁 Japanese “here” Button
🈂️ Japanese “service Charge” Button
🈷️ Japanese “monthly Amount” Button
🈶 Japanese “not Free of Charge” Button
🈯 Japanese “reserved” Button
🉐 Japanese “bargain” Button
🈹 Japanese “discount” Button
🈚 Japanese “free of Charge” Button
🈲 Japanese “prohibited” Button
🉑 Japanese “acceptable” Button
🈸 Japanese “application” Button
🈴 Japanese “passing Grade” Button
🈳 Japanese “vacancy” Button
㊗️ Japanese “congratulations” Button
㊙️ Japanese “secret” Button
🈺 Japanese “open for Business” Button
🈵 Japanese “no Vacancy” Button

Please rework on these for the next update. Thank you.

FYI: The following changes were made to this repository's wiki:

• defacing spam has been removed

• the wiki has been disabled, as it was not used

These were made as the result of a recent automated defacement of publically writeable wikis.

As of January 1 2019, Mozilla requires that all GitHub projects include this CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md file in the project root. The file has two parts:

1. Required Text - All text under the headings Community Participation Guidelines and How to Report, are required, and should not be altered.
2. Optional Text - The Project Specific Etiquette heading provides a space to speak more specifically about ways people can work effectively and inclusively together. Some examples of those can be found on the Firefox Debugger project, and Common Voice. (The optional part is commented out in the raw template file, and will not be visible until you modify and uncomment that part.)

While the roadmap does mention the plan to update the emoji set Unicode to 8.0 by the end of 2016 Q1, it hasn't happened yet. I would just like to enquire what is the status on this?

Also, why Emoji One is not used? I'm not saying don't have your own set of emojis, just asking as to why an existing (and complete [1]) emoji has not been used...

Name: donotlittersymbol
Codepoint: 1F6AF

The icon should be of a person littering, rather than a waterspout. The red circle outline should also be crossed out.

It is really hard to get Emoji working on Ubuntu (and likely other Linux distributions).
The most popular guides found by search engines contain either invalid steps (http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2014/11/see-install-use-emoji-symbols-ubuntu-linux did not work here) or link to font files that do not exist any more and might be problematic from a license perspective (see https://gist.github.com/robotslave/4633393).

For this reason, I wonder if it makes sense to create a bundled release of the fxemoji font and offer it for download so Linux users can benefit from the font. It's really great that we've done this for Firefox OS and that there's a permissive license too.

What do you think @pivanov?

I can appreciate that FirefoxOS’ Unicode flags want to fit somewhat into the levity of Emoji, yet the colours for this flag are insultingly wide of the mark, and the red saltire is completely lacking it’s counterchange (the white always follows the red clockwise). It makes this a different flag entirely.

should give an indication of how the offsets ought to be as a ratio of the design.

As such, greatbritainflag.*.svg need a rework - does this repo take PRs?

The emoji for ⚽ Soccer Ball [U+26BD] is made only of hexagons

For the explanation, I'll defer to Matt Parker on the same issue of UK signs

On systems where the colour tables are unsupported the default glyphs will be used in black and white, but they seem to automatically generated from the coloured SVGs and end up mostly as black blobs making them unusable. I’m not sure if there is an easy way to handle this without having to draw a separate black and white version for each glyph.

Let's add the GitHub pages link so it's easy for people to see the emojis 😉

Hi,
This new emoji font is great news! I also like the visual design.
What is the license for the emoji drawings and for the code generating the font?

It has been about 4 years since any code changes for this font. We don't use this in mozilla-central. We use the OS font with a fallback of Twemoji. Talked with @mhoye about deprecating this repository and suggesting people use https://twemoji.twitter.com/ or https://github.com/googlefonts/noto-emoji#noto-emoji

This comes up from time to time in emoji reviews which tend to be negative

The line graph depicted on U+1F4C9 has 3 segments. The second segment is a line that goes backwards on the X axis. This is wrong, and should be corrected.

It is common for the X axis in such charts to represent time. The points should always go from a lower X value to a higher X value.
