I wonder if it has anything to do with alphabetical order... No, that's not it

I'd say that "alphabet" has no relation to the things on that string.

But yeah, it's the Unicode Consortium that knows something about it, not Swift.

That emoji is also really just some letters is it not? So it probably is alphabetical.

[–] marcos@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Depends on how you define "letter", but they are definitively not alphabetical. They are ideographs.
