I was heavy user of `emojify-mode' and now Emacs has emoji support in
new development version. But not all emojis are supported and it
distorts my display heavily now.

Please include following emojis:

🗒 - which I use for notes
🗄 - which I use for archive or files
ℹ - it should be of same width as emoji, included in emoji
⚠ - it should be of same width as emoji, included
✍ - for writing

I am sure many other such should be included in emoji.

I'm not sure what you mean.  These glyphs are as wide as the font you're
using to display them.  And they're "included", of course.

There don't use the emoji fonts, but the symbol fonts (and can be
inserted with `C-x 8 RET' instead of `C-x 8 e e').

> I am sure many other such should be included in emoji.

Nope.

I was used to emojify-mode mode, what I know and see visually is that
some symbols I have used in it, with the new feature are lost. This
may be due to emojify-mode mode and I can't know more than that. That
mode also transforms :) to emoji, like :smile: also.

AFAICT Unicode says that those codepoints have Emoji_Presentation=No,
which means that applications should prefer a "text presentation",
i.e. in Emacs, a non-color font, *unless* you append U+FE0F VARIATION
SELECTOR-16 to these characters.

See https://unicode.org/reports/tr51/#Emoji_Presentation for reference.

Just C-x 8 RET FE0F after those characters, and Emacs (starting with
version 28) will display them with a color font as you expect.

Or use Emacs 29's emoji selection commands, e.g. C-x 8 e s warn RET,
which will automatically append U+FE0F if needed.

That makes sense and it works. ⚠️

Yes, I do use new features now.

It is resolved then. But there is related issue that I cannot insert
new emojis in mini buffer, which I could always do with emojify-mode
when doing C-x 8 RET SMILING FACE WITH SMILING EYES for example.

Mmm, C-x 8 RET calls read-char-by-name, which automatically sets
enable-recursive-minibuffers to t.  Perhaps the new emoji commands
should do the same?

FWIW I have enable-recursive-minibuffers set to t permanently; C-x 8 e s
seems to work fine in the minibuffer with this configuration.

OK; I'm closing this bug report, then.

And there's a separate bug report for that, bug#51742.
