Steps to reproduce

I’m using the Mac Dynalist app with the font Calibri. Using mac’s emoji input, it puts some emojis in as gendered versions… For example the :shrug: has 2 forms. and

Here’s the link to the unicode emoji:

However, when I view it through chrome, it gets rendered out correctly.

Expected result

I’d expect the mac app to render it correctly too.

Actual result

but it seems to render it as 2 separate symbols.

Thanks for such a detailed report!
When you viewed through chrome, did you view it on Dynalist’s web app? If that’s the case it’ll probably get fixed when we update our engine version to a later version of Chromium for the desktop app.
