I said only one that matters. So I already did pick one. It's called Unicode.
UTF-8 and UTF-16 pretty much do everything, but if you have a UTF-16 emoji in a UTF-8 system, you'll have a bad day. :(
Those are encodings, not character sets.
IANA calls them character sets, it's literally in the URL twice, that's good enough for me!
No need to tell us how you feel every day
