Re:UTF-8 is a brilliant design on Friday September 26, 2025 @12:07PM (#45388080)
You reserve 32 bits of these 128 just like UTF-8 did for theirs for ASCII for backward-compatibility, and request backward compatible fall-back from user interfaces, I hope it clears it

Exactly this, with note that due ecosystem and history of software, setting up such environment is either really hard or relatively expensive
Back as in using less dependencies or throwing bunch of "certifying" services at all of them?
