> Possibly related to (no idea how to fix it, however - sorry!) [https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/566f367fc347617f3feb908257c6ed925d0e2577](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/566f367fc347617f3feb908257c6ed925d0e2577)

In short there was a broken emoji, deleting the custom emoji and clearing the emoji cache solved the problem.

Thanks everyone, we’re back up and running again, hope this helps others 🙂
