G'day 👁️🍾👍🦟,
++ More emoji fun!
It's after 4am here, so just a few comments for now (then sleepy-time).
I may spend a bit more time on this later in the weekend.

The obvious absence from the table is your own: 👁️🍾👍🦟
-
I wasn't a huge fan of this, but you said "I really like it",
so for kcott: 👌🏻🛏️🫖

For merlyn, I would have picked: 🧙🏼 U+1F9D9 MAGE
(using 🏼 U+1F3FC EMOJI MODIFIER FITZPATRICK TYPE-3
skin tone matched against his picture on his home node).
Segoe UI Emoji on Win10 and Win11
We had various discussions about this in "Larger profile pic than 80KB?" and "Perl Secret Operator Emojis".
I've added the following CSS to the top of On-Site CSS Markup: in Display Settings:
body * {
font-family: "Verdana", "Twemoji Mozilla", sans-serif;
}
pre, tt, textarea {
font-family: "Consolas", "Twemoji Mozilla", monospace;
}
I suspect this will only work with Firefox.
It has the following effects:
-
Where there are no emoji characters, the page renders exactly as before (as far as I can tell through visual inspection).
It's possible it may need a few tweaks;
for example, before starting to compose this reply, I didn't realise I needed to include textarea.
-
The newer ZWJ sequences, such as in "Re: Perl Secret Operator Emojis", now appear as a single glyph.
-
Flag emoji glyphs continue to render as a flag;
not the two separate REGIONAL INDICATOR SYMBOL LETTER [A-Z] you reported seeing.
-
Emoji from Unicode 15.0 still render as a codepoint in a box, as in "Re^6: Larger profile pic than 80KB?".
That affected U+01FADA GINGER ROOT there;
your U+01FABC JELLYFISH in the table in your OP is similarly affected.
See Unicode PDF code chart
"Symbols and Pictographs Extended-A (Range: 1FA70-1FAFF)"
which has 15.0 emoji highlighted in yellow.
-
As Segoe UI Emoji and Twemoji Mozilla are different fonts,
there will obviously be differences between individual glyphs (some minor, some major);
you may not like it for this reason (a matter of personal choice).
