Discussions, as you know, as released 4+ years ago. When that happened, there was also a conversion script. That script had to be updated for all of the new features that had been added between then and now. Given the number of wikis that converted then and that Fandom expects all remaining wikis to be converted (at the time of that post) "soon", the implication is that most Forum posts on Fandom have already been converted using some version of the script that doesn't properly preserve emojis.
