If you cannot display any emoji at all on your system, I guess it will just show white boxes??
I installed it and had a look. And yes, it just shows white boxes.
Can you attach a screenshot of this? In emoji-picker, you can switch to a black and white emoji-font, "Symbola".
(There is a font switcher menu at the top).
If you do that, I *guess* that you will see the black and white emoji. But only in emoji-picker ☹. If you click on an emoji in emoji-picker and then paste it somewhere else, for example into gedit, most likely you will see only blank space in gedit because your system is set up to use color emoji fonts and somehow that doesn't work.
If you paste an emoji into LibreOffice, you will probably see it as LibreOffice cannot show emoji in colour yet and always shows them in black and white.
