I recently noticed that my og </og/> images were missing emoji. They were taken using headless chrome in a container. I fixed it by adding an emoji font in the containerfile / dockerfile.

```
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y \
    # Add fonts with emoji support
    fonts-noto-color-emoji \
    && rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*
```
