Non Apple-supported Emoji
There are emoji that are not supported on Apple devices and/or not supported on OSX but maybe exist in a beta version of iOS.
For example the Rainbow Flag emoji currently will render a pride flag on iOS but on OSX (at the time of this writing) it will render a while flag followed by a rainbow symbol 🏳️🌈️. You should still be able to use this and other emoji even if they render strangely on the current OS.
Configuration Options
You can change the keyword in the settings of the workflow
