[🐛 Bug]: Missing unicode characters

[thbley]

What happened?

Using docker container selenium/standalone-chromium:latest (138.0.7204.157-1), I'm missing some unicode characters when displaying a web page, e.g. "⭘".

I solved this by running inside the container:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install fonts-noto-core

without fonts-noto-core:

with fonts-noto-core:

Might I know this character belongs to which language?

I don't know, I use some unicode symbols in the UI as a replacement for icons. This symbol was successfully tested with Browserstack on latest versions of Windows, MacOS, iOS and Android, manually tested with Kubuntu 22.04.5.
