You will need a font that can support these icons. Check out one of the nerd font packages if you don't have a working font.

Then install ranger_devicons:

$ git clone https://github.com/alexanderjeurissen/ranger_devicons ~/.config/ranger/plugins/ranger_devicons
$ echo "default_linemode devicons" >> $HOME/.config/ranger/rc.conf
