Post Script

If you wonder about missing versions:

• 1.34.5 was not released due to missing flag emojis on windows at that time, unfortunately the emoji mart maintainers did not react yet to my pr: missive/emoji-mart#809
• 1.36.0 was completely broken (crashing on all platforms on startup)
• 1.36.1 , .2, .3 also had problems that prevented a full rollout, see changelog for more details.
