Code page 65001 has existed for a long time now, but it was discouraged because there were a lot of corner cases that didn't work. Did they finally get all the kinks out of it?

Yes. Applications can switch code page on their own.

Yes, Windows 10 has continually improved UTF-8 support. You can even set applications to use it by default now.
