They have?  Looking at 

  https://github.com/googlefonts/noto-emoji/blob/main/fonts/NotoColorEmoji.ttf

the most recent color emoji font (v2.038 from 2022-Sept-16) is still
called `NotoColorEmoji.ttf`.  Whence did you get the font?

Please have a look how `ftview` is doing this.

  https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/freetype/freetype-demos/-/blob/master/src/ftview.c

The abovementioned font from the git repository gets loaded just fine.
