I see the broken heart and the two facing kissing emoji.
They are in black and white not colour, but they do display.
I'm using Fedora 37 and its up to date.
I think you'll find that *how* those glyphs are rendered will depend on
the font *and* the application.
If the font doesn't include them, a system *can* use an alternative
font to show them, or it can show a *missing* character glyph (e.g.
blank boxes, inverse text question marks). And if it does include
them, it'd be up to whoever drew the font as to whether they bothered
to make them coloured or just did a monochrome version.
On my CentOS 7, they show fine in my Evolution, vim, and gedit. But in
gvim, they get sliced in half. Their glyphs are double-width, and my
gvim is only showing single-width monospaced text (all text/glyphs the
same width). Interestingly the first one got the left half, the second
one got the right half.
On my Fedora 36, they work fine in all those applications (though I
have pluma and not gedit, in this case).
At least in my case: the font has them and all the applications (two instances
of vim and konsole) should use it.
But probably you are right and this is not a problem of Konsole but of how KDE
renders them. If the app uses KDE rendering mechanism they are not rendered
properly. If the app uses its own rendering mechanism it depends. This would
explain why gvim works properly but vim in the terminal is not.
