Also, when they're rendered correctly (i.e. at the enlarged size) after pinch-zooming, if I then start to select some of the text (which causes a repaint), they'll snap back to their unzoomed size.

Seems like they "prefer" to render without the transform applied, but in some cases, particularly as a result of pinch-zoom, they do apply it correctly. Weird. I suspect this might have something to do with the emoji font involved using bitmap (rather than scalable outline) glyphs. If I force the use of a scalable-outline emoji font such as (modern COLRv1) Noto Color Emoji[1], I can't reproduce the issue.


[1] Note that many Linux distros appear to still have the older bitmap-format Noto Color Emoji, which is probably why comment 0 mentions reproducing this on Linux.
