| ===== Other Updates ===== |
| |
| ==== Color Emoji ==== |
| |
| During this development cycle, the team voted on whether to bring color emoji to Xubuntu. We didn't get quite enough votes to come to a decision, but if you're interested in having color emoji, it's easy to add or remove! |
| |
| **Installing color emoji**\\ |
| ''sudo apt install fonts-noto-color-emoji'' |
| |
| **Restoring monochrome emoji**\\ |
| ''sudo apt remove fonts-noto-color-emoji'' |
