I’m not well versed in the machinations of the Chinese government, but if a relatively “normie” VPN like Nord works in China… it’s probably controlled opposition (i.e. they’re logging everything to a government server.)

This broke for me a few months ago. It just randomly… won’t start, despite saying otherwise.
Too late, already moved to Garmin after my third dead Charge 5 in ~1.5 years.
Good, I would like to avoid interacting with the hallucination machine.
Wow, I can talk to the hallucination machine! What an innovation!
… God, imagine if this all this effort went towards fusion power or space infrastructure. What a waste.
Yeah, no thanks. My third Charge 5 in 1.5 years “randomly” died a few days ago - I’m not that gullible.
Unicode versions (what this is talking about) and encodings are different things.
Encodings kind of by definition don’t really change. Unicode versions add new codepoints (such as emoji.)
Full Unicode text and images is likely all we’ll get, but honestly I never understood the appeal of all the crap they stuff into (say) iMessage.

Yeah, there really isn’t any reason to go with one processor brand over the other. Since drivers and such aren’t a concern (like with GPUs) most people just pick whichever one has the most price-effective offering in the spec range they’re looking for.
We’d need a quantum leap in storage and bandwidth first - orders of magnitude better, if we want competing to be financially sane 😮💨
Maybe when Google is (hopefully eventually) shattered into a million pieces by some US judge, YouTube could be splintered into several smaller companies, each with some portion of the infrastructure and channels/videos - thus forcing competition. Vaguely similar to the Bell divestiture.
