Minimal pack with lennyface emoji fonts etc.

I wonder if there is a single package that contains fonts that are used as emoji, characters from various exotic languages used even as lennyface?

Previously, I installed more font packs until they began to cover more and more strange characters, but this is not the optimal method.

It is about getting all the characters used on the net, but by the minimum number of packages or the package of the minimum size.

My old fonts:

ttf-tw wqy-microhei wqy-zenhei ttf-arphic-ukai ttf-arphic-uming opendesktop-fonts wqy-bitmapfont ttf-hannom otf-ipafont ttf-vlgothic ttf-mplus ttf-ipa-mona ttf-monapo ttf-sazanami ttf-baekmuk ttf-alee ttf-unfonts-core ttf-nanum ttf-nanumgothic_coding ttf-google-fonts ttf-noto-sans-kannada noto-fonts

The "ttf-droid" package looks interesting. It's pretty small but contains fonts that can do Japanese, Korean, etc., and also things like the Indian continent languages. Maybe try that package and see what happens. It might make it so you can skip very large packages like noto-fonts-cjk, and might make it so you can skip hunting down weird stuff like Tamil that might show up in things like Lenny faces.
