[Chat] emojione (was Re: [IMPORTANT, ACTIONABLE] [lca2017] Your linux.conf.au 2017 ticket, and last chance for amendments)

Hey Peter,

On linux, you need to play around with Fontconfig to make emoji render
(it has something to do with fallback fonts on X and .fontconfig that
I don't quite understand). There are tutorials on the internets.

Basically, Emojione should work on Linux.
