dev-note: Doom Emacs status line missing icons on fresh install

Let’s say you set up Doom Emacs from scratch for the first time, and you followed the instructions correctly and install the all-the-icons fonts when prompted, saw the icons properly displayed in the dashboard (launch window), but once you open a file, the status line starts showing random characters, instead of icons.

You need to install nerd-icons using M-x nerd-icons-install-fonts because the doom-modline has switched from all-the-icons to nerd-icons
