User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:125.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/125.0
Steps to reproduce:
Visiting a wide array of websites and compared the results.
Actual results:
Some emojis that are joined together by Zero Width Joiners are not rendered correctly.
As this happens on multiple websites (emojipedia.org, duckduckgo.com, mozilla.org for example) I assume it is the default and websites that render them correctly (like twitter.com) are the exception by technical choices by the website operator.
A list of emojis that don't render correctly:
Healing heart ❤️🩹
Face Exhaling 😮💨
Burning heart❤️🔥
Woman/Man/Person feeding baby👩🏼🍼
Transgender flag🏳️⚧️
Expected results:
All the emojis above should be rendered displayed as a joined emoji each

This is just a question of what's supported by the emoji font on the platform. All the examples in comment 0 render correctly for me on macOS, but the emoji font on Windows is less complete, so I'm not surprised there are issues there.
Some sites (e.g. twitter) may provide their own emoji font, or replace emoji with inline graphics, and so get different results.

Thank you for your explanation. I thought it would be something with Firefox. I will close the issue.
