Apple  symbol replacement

[gubler]

🎯 Subject of the issue

On macOS there is the  symbol that can be entered with Option-Shift-K. I don't know the code-point that is used here and I am fairly sure it is handled via a fallback font.

In pre-2.0 this symbol worked:

but since 2.0 it is replaced with this symbol:

I have kept using the older font because I use this symbol in a bunch of my documentation.

🔧 Your Setup

• Post 2.0 - Anonymous Nerd Font Regular and Pre-2.0 AnonymousPowerline Nerd Font
• iterm2 and any other text editor (VS Code, vim, etc.)
• macOS High Sierra, Mojave, and Catalina

+1 this is rather painful, using Hasklug Nerd Font and seeing the same problem.

I have this in my Kitty ~/.config/kitty/unicode-input-favorites.conf:

f8ff #  - Apple Emoji

So looks like it's the private-use character U+F8FF.

Looks like it's in Font Awesome as fa-apple.

I have tried the JetBrains Mono nerdfont and it has the same issue.

Hi there, anyone know if there's a temporary workaround for this? (i'm using FiraCode Nerd Font)

F8FF will no longer be overwritten with Nerd Fonts v3.0.0, because

• Add New Material Design Icons to its own region #773

I mark this as solved already, but it will be active with v3.0.0 only.
