I notice that when I create a Quick Filter with some emoji (e.g. โบ๏ธ) it saves, but when I try others (e.g. ๐) it doesn't save.
Which emoji characters does Jira support in the Quick Filters?

Some of these can be output by replacing the spaces with underscores (_).
For example, :no_entry_sign: will work, but :black_sun_with_rays will not work.
The emoji characters render differently on different platforms: see the comparison chart. This depends more on the operating system than the browser. Here is a comparison of Pizza slice character:
Mac: 
Windows 7: 
Chrome OS: 
(All from Chrome browser). And this is the character itself, rendered by the browser you are using currently.

This variety is hardly acceptable for online-based presentation, which are often delivered from a computer other than the one on which the presentation was prepared. At present, Google deals with this by using an SVG font (apparently, their own), for example this is their rendering of pizza slice:

The result:
This makes the Slides platform-independent, but at the cost of not having colorful (possibly proprietary) icons.
As Rubรฉn suggested, inserting images works; you can copy-paste an image into a presentation, taking it, e.g., from fileformat pages.

Update: Based on my manual research, I think I found a pattern. It seems only the 2-byte characters in the range U+203C through U+3299 are supported. This includes the Miscellaneous Symbols Unicode block (U+2600-U+26FF).
There didn't seem to be any pattern with which emoji characters are and aren't supported, so I wrote a simple cliclick command to copy and paste emojis from TextEdit.
These are (some of) the emoji characters that work in Jira's Quick Filter:
I tried pasting a bunch of emoji characters into Jira to see which work. The majority of them didn't work. Only the above worked. For reference, here are the ones I tried:
Disclaimer: The mechanism to determine if a character is supported or isn't supported involved a flaky script that copied each emoji character and tried saving it. At times there were flaws while copying, or delays while saving. Therefore, while all the items in ListA do work in Jira, there may be a few emoji characters in ListB that also work in Jira.
To run the script yourself, download cliclick, then do the following:
Run the command:
Copy everything after
c:1000,35as many times as you want if you want to copy more than one emoji at a time. For example, to run it 3 times:The command will do the following:
c:1000,32 w:100- Click on TextEdit which is located at position (1000,35)kd:shift kp:arrow-right ku:shift- Highlight the next emoji character.kd:cmd t:c ku:cmd- Copy it to the clipboard (Note: this is necessary becauset:๐does not work in cliclick)kp:arrow-right kp:arrow-right- Place the carat at the start of the next emoji.c:340,355 w:100 c:340,355- Click in the Jira Quick Filter title field. Clicking twice is necessary to be less flaky.kd:cmd t:a t:v ku:cmd- Select all the text in there, then paste the emoji.kp:return w:200- Try submitting this Quick Filter with only the title, and wait 200ms.
