Created attachment 471363 [details] Screenshot from WhatsApp Web showing that emojis are missing from the selection menu WhatsApp Web failes to load many emojis (seemingly at random) both in Epiphany and Tangram (https://github.com/sonnyp/Tangram), which uses WebKitGTK as a backend. See screenshot. Tangram debug information: WebKitGTK 2.44.1 GJS 1.78.5 Adw 1.4.4 GTK 4.12.5 GLib 2.78.4 libsoup 3.4.4 GStreamer 1.22.11 Epiphany debugging information: WebKitGTK 2.44.1 GStreamer 1.22.11

I found that the issue does not occur with the TP version on GNOME OS. I can reproduce it with Epiphany (rpm package) on Fedora.

Created attachment 476417 [details] screenshot The situation seems better with 2.48.5, some are still missing though.
