So theres no way to display colored emojis or even the fire emoji?
Also would this be an Electron problem or a Raspberry/Raspbian problem?

At first glance it looks like a chromium/linux problem,

I’ve seen some colored symbols, but don’t know if you can get an overview of those that are working on MM.

FIXED!!!

For anyone that has the same issue I was able to fix it by doing the following steps:

1. Follow this article’s step to download and create font-config

2. Unzip folder from Raspberry Pi’s Download Folder

3. Open Terminal and type the following:
   cp *.ttf ~/.fonts/
   fc-cache -v -f

4. Reboot Raspberry Pi

5. Verify that you can see emoji (https://eosrei.github.io/emojione-color-font/full-demo.html)
