I think you could install a different emoji font, such as the ones twitter made, and switch to that one in your firefox preferences. But I'm not sure how to do that exactly. Source: 12 months ago
Discord just uses the standard set of Unicode characters, with the Twemoji look (the Twitter open source emoji look: https://twemoji.twitter.com/) and all the other added emojis (like the custom emojis used by different servers) are just .png/.webp or .gif files that are then displayed.

Discord had nothing to do with what each individual emoji looks like, Twitter does. 😭 they use Twemoji. Source: about 1 year ago
I coded Match ‘Em on my friend’s online gaming platform using Twitter’s open source emojis. The goal of the game is to be the fastest to find the common emoji. The set of emojis changes every game, since we have a larger pool of symbols. In the future, I’m thinking of adding themes to make it more interesting. Source: over 1 year ago
Twitter's emoji set, by contrast, is much more open. Those emojis are used in Discord and Wordpress, among many others. Source: over 1 year ago
Yes, it’s an open source project by twitter called “Twemoji”. It’s meant for others to use. Source: over 1 year ago
u/The_Rolling_Stone The emoji sets offered in this extension (Twitter, Google and Openmoji) have open-source licences that allow for personal and commercial use (with attribution). Source: over 1 year ago
As a developer, this is a bit oversimplified. The operating system decides the emoji design, as you can see on sites like emojipedia. Apps like Discord and Twitter convert emoji to images (with Discord and Twitter, the emojis are Twemoji). Fonts do not affect emoji. Source: over 1 year ago
Another solution I came across is twemoji. This is from twitter and it parses unicode emojis in to images. I haven't tried this one but as far as I read, it could have performance implication too. Source: over 1 year ago
Cool idea, but the GPL license makes it impossible to use in any serious project (other than OSS projects), unfortunately. Also, since Twemoji is being used, from my understanding this must be properly attributed when using this module (which the repo unfortunately fails to do, unfortunately). Source: over 1 year ago
As much as I appreciate Twitter making their emojis open-source for FOSS projects, Microsoft's new emojis are just so much more visually appealing. I would love to see these become the new standard for emojis when it comes to FOSS projects. Source: almost 2 years ago
Discord doesn't choose the emoji, they use https://twemoji.twitter.com. Source: almost 2 years ago
It isn't old, it is frequently updated. twemoji.twitter.com. Source: almost 2 years ago
The Twemoji team is Twitter. They made a free-to-use SVG/PNG emoji pack originally for Twitter, but they licensed the images under CC-BY 4.0, and the code that lets you insert them on websites using JavaScript under the MIT license. Source: over 2 years ago
See this comment, which says Discord uses Twemoji. Source: over 2 years ago
Https://twemoji.twitter.com/ I can't figure it out, personally. Source: over 2 years ago
The Twemojis (emojis of Twitter) also are open source and have a way better design: https://twemoji.twitter.com/. Source: over 2 years ago
Discord uses Twemoji so it doesn’t have control over the designs. Source: almost 3 years ago
Discord uses Twitter's Twemoji set, and they render just fine. Source: almost 3 years ago
I use twemoji everywhere. It has all the flags and also supports a lot (all?) of new gender variants of emoji. Source: almost 3 years ago
That is a good point. I think it'd be neat if they rolled up Twemojis https://twemoji.twitter.com/. Source: almost 3 years ago
