Use custom emoji for 🦋 #6079

Describe the Feature

Both on Twitter and in Bluesky itself, people are writing 🦋 to refer to Bluesky itself.

This works well on iOS and on Twitter: you get a light blue butterfly, which closely resembles the Bluesky logo.

However on Android, where the font is Google Noto Emoji, it is an orange butterfly shown partially sideways. You can see it at https://emojipedia.org/butterfly#designs

Given that 🦋 is emerging as "the Bluesky emoji", it'd be great if it had a consistent appearance in the app across different OSs: either using the Apple version or the Bluesky logo itself :)

Describe Alternatives

Do nothing. Although everything that looks like a butterfly is a good representation for that emoji, it might still be weird to see a different butterfly that the one used in other apps on the same OS.

I'm on android and it looks good to me. I guess I'm a lucky one?

I'm on a Samsung galaxy s21. 🦋.

Samsung has their own emoji set, separate from Google's Noto emojis.
