They are also a pain to type. Where I live there are 2 keyboard layouts: Spanish and Latin. 99% of people don’t know how to tell them apart which means that their hardware keyboard does not match the setting on the computer, so the label on the keyboard does not match with what is typed. There are also two accents in the keyboard: á, and à which are hard to distinguish one the key starts rubbing off.
All of this means that a lot of people don’t even know how to type an accent, and a lot of us never remember when we should be typing them anyway
On top of that this (programming) language, doesn’t even support them. Probably because they cause a lot of encoding issues
Yeah… Accents are a pain.

Nope. That is not how that works

On my Linux at home it types nothing but if I press the I key again I get î. I can also do ê, â, ô and û this way.
US Intl Macintosh layout.
What keyboard layout do you have? Both physically and virtually
Physically I have a blank 100% ANSI layout. My keyboard is the Das Keyboard Ultimate 4:
Virtually I have set the “English (Macintosh, ABC, ANSI)” layout on my Linux system:
As quick start, I can press AltGr+` to put a ˋ on the next letter I type, AltGr+E for ´, AltGr+U for ¨, AltGr+I for ˆ, and AltGr+N for ˜.
Sorry for the late reply, hope this still helps you/someone.
