I have also reported this on Ubuntu Launchpad in case it's an issue at their end. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qgit/+bug/1893745

🦄 is replaced with a rectangle.

Sounds like "tofu", i.e. there's just no font with a 🦄 glyph. It's working over here (Linux, Qt 5.15.5, still on qgit 2.9):
