Does Ubuntu 18.04 show filenames containing emojis in colour?

I've recently transferred some files made on Mac OS, and containing emojis in their filename, to my Ubuntu 16.04 LTS machine.



The emojis show up in Nautilus, albeit monochromatic. Will I see them in full color if I switch to 18.04 LTS?

          I tested this out in a VM, and it seems you can get colour emojis in 18.04:





          1. 16.04:






          2. 18.04:






          The filenames were created over ssh from macOS using touch 🍺😅; the emojis entered using the macOS emoji picker.

            Yes, 18.04 supports colour emoji by default.




            The Ubuntu desktop now ships with a full set of color emoji. Previously, emoji support was inconsistent and emojis appeared as black-and-white in some applications.
