Special characters that show up after Z?

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hello, I’m just looking for some good special characters that you can use at the front of a tag, to cause that tag to sort after Z when all tags are sorted alphabetically. This is a well-tread topic as it applies to other things, like Outlook, or Windows Explorer or Finder on Mac. But I’m trying to figure out a simplenote version.

    Some people just put a z as the first character:

    Apples
    Bananas
    Coconuts
    zApricots

    But such people are heathens. Around the internet, some characters that do work for, say, Outlook, or Windows folders, don’t work for Simplenote. In terms of things that work for simplenote, I have seen 一 or Ξ work, both of which are relatively neutral, aesthetically. However, they appear to “work” (e.g. cause the tags to be sorted after Z when sorting alphabetically) on simplenote for web, but not on the app for android.

    Any suggestions for a special character that will work for both web and the android app? Might this different sorting of the same character on web and app be considered a bug?

    @abbenm at this time, there isn’t a character you can use to push content after Z on all platforms.
