fontawesome icons are not rendered correctly in status bar #814

Open guoqiao opened 3 years ago

Example code: code Status bar: bar

As you can see, the fontawesome wifi icon is mis-renderred to a bell icon. However, emoji is working fine. This happens to other fontawsome icon as well.

After some debuging, I realized the issue is not from this repo, it's the i3bar command not handling it correctly. I will still leave it open for more discussion, e.g.: how to add icon to bar correctly. Feel free to provide your solution, or close this issue.
