My vscode font setting

  "editor.fontFamily": "'MonoLisa'",
  "workbench.fontAliasing": "auto",
  "editor.fontLigatures": "'calt' on, 'liga' on, 'zero' on, 'ss01' on, 'ss02' on, 'ss04' on, 'ss05' on, 'ss06' on, 'ss07' on, 'ss08' on, 'ss10' on, 'ss11' on, 'ss12' on, 'ss13' on, 'ss14' on, 'ss15' on, 'ss16' on, 'ss17' on"
}

IIRC emojis are not commonly included in MonoLisa, you can also tell by a brief look at the emojis that they are the ones provided by Apple, the last one, you see as broken, is probably the one that »comes« from MonoLisa

[rockmandash]

Is there a way to omit that specific character while retaining all MonoLisa capabilities in Visual Studio Code?

There are smiley icons in the latest version of ML. We will discuss if we should keep them at all.

Since VS Code uses web based rendering, you can give fallback fonts to it. Here's an example to try: "editor.fontFamily": "<font with only emojis>, 'MonoLisa'",. What I'm unsure of is where to find an emoji only font but this is the direction to investigate. Noto Emoji looks like a promising option.
