Some icons missing in websites

Description of the issue:
Some icons and/or character sets are missing in websites.

Exact URL of the website in question:
This happens almost all websites. for example: https://eurovision.tv/story/the-american-song-contest-is-about-to-begin

Did the issue present with default Shields settings? (yes/no)
yes.

Does the site function as expected when Shields are turned off?
no. Even if I disable the Shields, I still reproduce the issue.

Is there a specific Shields configuration that causes the site to break? If so, tell us that configuration. (yes/no):
no. (default).

Does the site work as expected when using Chrome?
(I don’t have chrome) in Chromium icons still missing. But in Firefox, everything works fine. (see screenshots below:)

Firefox (works fine):

Chromium (icons missing):

Brave (icons missing):

Brave version (check About Brave):
Version 1.36.111 Chromium: 99.0.4844.51 (Official Build) unknown (64-bit)

Other informations:
Operating System: Manjaro Linux
KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.91.0
Qt Version: 5.15.3

Thanks.

I think this is OS specific — I see these icons on both Windows and macOS systems. Additionally, if the icons are also not showing for you on Chromium, the issue will likely be fixed upstream in Chromium itself.

Should I report a new bug about this issue on Chromium website or Brave developers will have a look at the issue?

Thanks.

It is to do with the OS, Windows does not support flags anywhere in the OS, looks like Firefox might have made a custom workaround https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/flag-emoji/85b163bc-786a-4918-9042-763ccf4b6c05
