@futurebird I just added something not in the drop down, but its not unicode... so I know you can do that much...
But give me a minute ill compile a new firmware, flash it, and see if i can do it via via... if via doesnt support it you can always hard code your keymap and that for sure works. and even if you hard code it you can still use via to override later.
Give me a minute. I can compile a new firmware and flash it into my keyboard to add uniboard support and see if it works...
But yea it wont be in the drop down, that is expected (I have used via to add codes that arent in the drop down). You just want to type it in as UC(<codepoint>) the link I sent shows the format (hex decimal I think) then the confirm button should show up even if it wasnt in the drop down.
The info is here, but it isnt specific to via (but I use via and know it can transfer over if the firmware supports it):

@FluentInFinance Hi there, got your follow, thank you. Do you intend to interact with comments and people from this account, or will it be post-only?
Best of luck to you
You dont add the code directly, The format is UC(<codepoint>) you dont put in the codepoint direct.

@futurebird
I am somewhat certain you can use via, it jsut doesnt offer the unicode keys on the graphical side.. you would have to select the "any" key on via and then add the unicode keycode directly.. but yea you should be able to do it with via directly.
The caveat is if your keyboard has unicode turned on by default. If it doesnt then you will need to compile one once and then can use VIA.
If you do need to compile your own firmware it is **very** easy and id be happy to help you.
To clarify you have layers and they support unicode. You can reconfigure individual keys to be any unicode you want quickly and easily via a web app that talks to your keyboard. It works as-is on linux with no drivers. Being open source if you want to get the unicode in there through some unusual means then you have the ability to do that with a little custom coding.
But yea you can pretty much get any unicode on any key you want, ir natively supports unicode characters with a single tap.
There are hundreds of keyboards that exist that can do this... Any keyboard running the QMK firmware can do this. My own keyboard does this (though mine is a DIY)
@bwbeach Way to go, congrats man!

@volkris God I love R&D.... im in!
Facebook rule: posting female nipples will get you banned, unless a baby is sucking on one or more nipples in which case it is allowed.
What they dont say is how old the baby has to be to qualify... if a 20 year old is doing the sucking, ban, if a 20 month old is doing it its fine.... So whats the cutoff before a person sucking on your nipple is too old to be allowed by the rules?
@freepeoplesfreepress Thanks, I agree :)
That was what I had you for :)
I mean it usually works well enough, the bad ones eventually cross the line, many turn a bit nicer as they integrate.
I'd rather be a little slower to act and give someone a chance than to act too quick. But then again thats also why I try to keep a variety of people as equals on a mod team, to keep me in check when i am "too neutral"
@trinsec I mean too late now, but that was never a problem. As I've told moderators here before, I dont want to be considered special. We all have equal say on decisions. It is important all moderators feel equal to me, I have never (and would never) override a democratic moderator decision.
