I can personally confirm that on my Mac running Tahoe 26.2 (also checked on my iPad), the character renders as tofu across the system.

Emojipedia says "This character has not been recommended for emoji presentation by Unicode. It will therefore display as a a single black-and-white Unicode character across most platforms." - https://emojipedia.org/ballot-box-with-bold-check
