VRCX on Windows relies on Segoe UI Emoji font to render emojis in the game log to indicate a friend or a favourite, as this font is proprietary it cannot be used on Linux, I have remapped Segoe UI Emoji to use twemoji font instead (MIT licence)

It lacks colour but properly shows up

Tested on Fedora 41 and OpenSUSE Tumbleweed
