[Fedora-i18n-bugs] [Bug 1599870] emojis do not render if font hinting is turned off

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1599870

Hi, yes I still see it. I made a mistake in my original report because it seems
it is not just hinting off but the combination of hinting off + antialias on in
my fontconfig file that causes the issue:

<?xml version='1.0'?>
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM 'fonts.dtd'>
<fontconfig>
  <match>
    <edit mode="assign" name="hinting">
      <bool>false</bool>
    </edit>
    <edit mode="assign" name="antialias">
      <bool>true</bool>
    </edit>
  </match>
</fontconfig>

I do not use gnome DE, so I am not sure how gnome-tweaks and this fontconfig
file interact. Trying gnome, I deleted my fontconfig and used gnome-tweaks to
set hinting off + antialiasing on (subpixel) and emojis show in
gnome-characters as expected, but if I use the above fontconfig then emojis do
not show no matter the setting in gnome-tweaks or what DE I am using.
