Unicode showing up in my posts like this: But there are always exceptions.
When I post a comment on Facebook it sometimes shows annoying UNICODE at the end of the sentence. This just started in the last 2 months. Here is an example.
But there are always exceptions.

Hmm, not the cutest emoji.
If you haven't already, could you test in Firefox's Safe Mode? In its Safe Mode, Firefox temporarily deactivates extensions, hardware acceleration, any userChrome.css/userContent.css files, and some other advanced features to help you assess whether these are causing the problem.
If Firefox is not running: Hold down the Shift key when starting Firefox. (On Mac, hold down the option/alt key instead of the Shift key.)
If Firefox is running: You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using either:
- "3-bar" menu button > "?" Help button > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
- (menu bar) Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
and OK the restart.
Both scenarios: A small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (not Refresh).
Any improvement?
I started it in safe mode and the preexisting instances still appear, here is an example, published year and.
By the way this only happens on Facebook and as far as I know only using Foxfire.
This was not an emoji.

But new instances are not created in Safe Mode? Or they still are?
Did you check the encoding to make sure that Unicode (UTF-8) is selected and not another8-bit legacy encoding ?
