Thank you for being the first article I've ever actually read to explain the difference between NFC, NFD, NFKD and NFKC in a way that I actually understood. I was a little bored through the whole UCS/UTF* history lesson because I knew a lot of it already, but the normalization and collation examples were definitely worth it

I learned about it the hard way when dealing with Apple filesystems: https://eclecticlight.co/2021/05/08/explainer-unicode-normalization-and-apfs/ https://eclecticlight.co/2021/05/08/explainer-unicode-normal...
