What languages use this? I don't like it!

On the other hand it goes well with >= and <=. If >= means "either > or =" then <> means "either < or >", it checks out.

But I still don't like it.

I was on mobile so I didn't have a .XCompose available to type .

I feel the opposite. On mobile I have much easier access to special characters. I just need to hold down characters to get more variants.

Yup, ≠ is right “under” =. As is ≈.
