No problems here with the emojis on mobile. I think that on mobile Firefox comes with the "Noto Color Emoji" font. This is set via the font.name-list.emoji pref: 

WIN: "Segoe UI Emoji, Twemoji Mozilla"
MOB: "Noto Color Emoji"

The Flags are coded as a two character Unicode symbol with characters in the 1F1E6-1F1FF range. You need to have font installed that can display these emoji symbols. See e.g.:
