can I use a different font?

[Hichen220]

I currently have the Apple Color Emoji as my default font, but emojis in the app still use the Google Noto emojis, how can I use the Apple font?

Same issue here, would like to use the twitter font (which is already installed on my Arch system and works fine ; emote just uses another font for some reason)

If you comment out these lines it will use your system emoji font:

https://github.com/tom-james-watson/Emote/blob/f71e41b92bfe8a32451f0f0d93ae47da886d2b51/emote/init.py#L12-L15

I've done that in a customised PKGBUILD for Arch: https://github.com/wezm/aur/commit/7f101026d5fab20095f31a1f1b5c6dc34bdbde84

do I have to build it from scratch? If not, where could I find the file?

Fonts are no longer bundled into the app, so this should be fixed.

@tom-james-watson I installed the apple color emoji using this guide: https://gist.github.com/win0err/9d8c7f0feabdfe8a4c9787b02c79ac51. How do I make Emote use this font? GNOME Characters does show me the Apple emoji's. Emote however does not.
