It’s somewhat surprising how problematic the accent mark still is when used on Cyrillic letters and how few fonts render it correctly atop «і́» (і десяткове; should look identical to «í», Latin small “i” with acute replacing the tittle)—there’s Liberastika and Noto which thankfully work, but none of the Core fonts or Croscore fonts do. Neither do many of the fonts intended for some system’s defaults: not only good old DejaVu and Liberation fail, but fonts like Roboto, Fira, or Plex are just as broken in this respect.
Just now Duolingo asked me Which one of these is “bear”?, and clicking on the one labelled ведмі́дь (note the acute) played back confused TTS literally saying “ведмі де м'який знак.”

I should know better. After all it clearly says “where do you go,” not “where goest thou.”
Nie rozumiem dlaczego wielu ludzi woli zostać na czasie letnim zamiast w naszej najbliższej strefie… z całkowitym przesunięciem. Od dawna uważam, że trzeba jako alternatywę proponować kompromis który nie zadowoli absolutnie nikogo — UTC+01:24.
Liberalizm tak,
wypaczenia nie
