Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/lipis/flag-icons/issues/539

Several SVG icons have text layers in them: gu, gs, sm. That causes icons to render differently on different operating systems. "gs" flag uses font "Timmons" that is custom font nobody has.

Maybe that text should be converted to shapes?

Makes sense to me. Especially as fonts like Trebuchet MS are nonfree, one can't expect everyone to have them.

I just checked with @cyberalien who mentioned there are still two flags relying on fonts but he's going to include this in the Iconify sets without those two flags which seems reasonable me. In doing so flag-icons will become available for use along with other fonts with https://github.com/antfu/unplugin-icons which has very broad support for apps and will help make it easier to consume flags in web apps.
