How/where did you apply it? I used the kobopatch option in the 'KePub stylesheet additions' patch in libnickel.so.1.0.0.yaml.
It'll take me a little while but later I'll come back and add some screenshots showing ligatures using those 3 fonts in a test kepub.
ETA: As I mentioned earlier it's only going to look as good as the font you're using allows ...
As @ps67 says, it looks like the Kobo built-in Georgia hasn't actually got any ligatures. Either the glyphs are missing or there is no ligature lookup table defined.
My copy of Noto Serif only has 4 ligatures: fi, fl, ffi, ffl, but they are displayed below.
My copy of Bookerly has 6: fi, fl, ffi, ffl, ff, ft
The sideloaded font I use most often is MinionPro which has 27 ligatures defined, but only 8 of them are much use to me: fi, fl, ffi, ffl, ff, ft, fj, Th
Perhaps the rest are more relevant to other languages.
