Script outputting background #eeeeee for all emoji?

As near as I can tell anyway. I’ve put mine and others’ names into the pretty script URL and every background: comes up as #eeeeee. Have I just not looked at this in ages and so am missing something?

If you add the fluent parameter to the script URL you’ll get backgrounds calculated from the colors within the Fluent emoji image (though sometimes the calculated value happens to be #eeeeee) . If you omit fluent, the default system emoji will be used with a “generic” #eeeeee background since there’s no way to calculate a guaranteed complementary background color given the differences across system emoji.

So, https://status.lol/adam.js?pretty uses #eeeeee but https://status.lol/adam.js?pretty&fluent uses #efe7f3 at the time of this writing.

Hope that makes sense!

Ah, yes. So, “I just not looked at this in ages and so am missing something”.
