Congratulations, you are literally the only person on the

Haha, that is funny, :D though "unicode is shit" returns at
least 8 results. How many people even know how UTF-8 works?
Given how few people use it, I'm not surprised most don't
know enough about how it works to criticize it.
On the other hand:

I'm not sure if you were trying to make my point, but you just
did. There are only 19 results for that search string. If
UTF-8 were such a rousing success and most developers found it
easy to understand, you wouldn't expect only 19 results for it
and 8 against it. The paucity of results suggests most don't
know how it works or perhaps simply annoyed by it, liking the
internationalization but disliking the complexity.
Man, you're a bullshit machine!
