    Eli> What does "C-u C-x =" say in this case?

It claims itʼs composed:

             position: 146 of 251 (58%), column: 0
            character: 👍 (displayed as 👍) (codepoint 128077, #o372115, #x1f44d)
              charset: unicode (Unicode (ISO10646))
code point in charset: 0x1F44D
               script: emoji
               syntax: w 	which means: word
             category: .:Base
             to input: type "C-x 8 RET 1f44d" or "C-x 8 RET THUMBS UP SIGN"
          buffer code: #xF0 #x9F #x91 #x8D
            file code: #xF0 #x9F #x91 #x8D (encoded by coding system utf-8-unix)
              display: composed to form "👍️" (see below)

Composed with the following character(s) "️" using this font:
  ftcrhb:-GOOG-Noto Color Emoji-regular-normal-normal-*-13-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1
by these glyphs:
  [0 1 128077 569 16 0 17 13 4 nil]
with these character(s):
  ️ (#xfe0f) VARIATION SELECTOR-16
