Pretty much nobody purchases Windows. Microsoft peobably makes all the money from OEM licenses sold to manufacturers and I don't really think there's that much of an increase in sales once they release a new OS.

Yes PLEASE. I only have one more requirement: eraser button support. Without that button writing is terrible but I can't find a single app supporting it besides Samsung Notes.

tbh many fled to South Anerica because there were many German immigrants already there, meaning the Nazis didn't stand out.

True, I realized this after posting. After quickly looking it up, it turns out they were added a few years later and differ slightly from the rest of the flags. According to the probably correct source of Emojipedia, you can see the difference here:

https://emojipedia.org/flag-england https://emojipedia.org/flag-united-kingdom

Tl;dr
🇬🇧 = 'GB'
🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 = '🏴gbeng[cancel symbol]'
🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 = '🏴gbsct[cancel symbol]'
🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 = '🏴gbwls[cancel symbol]'

With the lower case letters representing "Tag Latin Small Letter X" and the upper case letters representing "Regional Indicator Symbol Letter X"

  1. I believe flags are sorted alphabetically by how they are internally represented. All flags are a combination of two special letter-symbols. For the UK flag, these two symbols are "GB", therefore the UK flag should be much earlier.

  2. 🇺🇸 (Flag of the USA [code: US]) ≠ 🇺🇲 (Flag of the US Outlying Islands [code: UM])

Yes, the first US flag, which most people pick, is actually the flag of the US Outlying Islands. Whenever you see someone use the US flag emoji, check whether they accidentally used the " wrong" one.

Due to network effects, YouTube has a monopoly in video hosting. A monopoly is any company which has significantly more marketshare in its respective niche than all other companies in the same niche.

Now, does YouTube fit this definition?

Btw, there have been successful lawsuits against channel suspensions already from people making a living off of YouTube due to worker protection laws.

But what if you wanted to write even if there weren't changes?
