I remember a long time ago there was a project for a store website, a customer from Japan. There were a lot of funny stories, especially when you are a person who writes in Cyrillic and is faced with a situation where there are hieroglyphics. But the thing I remember most is that my development environment was Linux, and there were times when search worked fine in my local environment. That is, you threw hieroglyphics in there, and the search returned a result. But it didn't work for my colleague, because his environment was in Windows. As it turned out, he needed to install additional packages. So I had this dislike from back then, when you have UTF-8, and they have all these fucking Windows-*.
