How come there is no American Flag emoji in my Microsoft 365 outlook. I am paying for this right or did it get removed?

Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
I also have this question. It is quite poignant that Microsoft would allow the LGBT flag but leave out all other flags - particularly the USA flag when adding emojis to emails using the Windows + period, or semicolon, keyboard shortcuts.
It is also my wish that the American flag be added!
Agreed!!! 100%

This is a very CRAPPY excuse and work around. If I search pride flag or other flags those come up. I believe your company is becoming less American Friendly and this **** needs to f****** stop.

Thanks for your kind reminder.
As per your description, l checked in Outlook desktop app, yes, there is no American flag and the world flags in the category list.
