I just learned a new thing re: #GNOME – how to type #Unicode characters.
1. Hold Ctrl + Shift + U
2. After releasing, type the rest of the Unicode hexadecimal value.
For example, the Philippine Peso sign is U20B1 or ₱ (I used the method above instead of using the assigned key).
I've been using #Linux with GNOME – for more than a decade now – and I had no idea until now. Think of it as, Alt+XXXX on Windows.
I came across this information from here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Custom%20keyboard%20layout%20definitions

I am currently working on updating the #Philippines keyboard layouts used on Linux, since it has been ten years ago when I first pushed said layouts, I need a refresher. The #BaybayinTagalog (#ᜊᜌ᜔ᜊᜌᜒᜈ᜔) layouts will be updated, too. New layouts will also be added, supporting #Baybayin #Buhid #Hanunoo and #Tagbanwa.
Hmm… I just realised, I will also add the #Phoenician keyboard layout I created years ago. It's only available for Windows, I did not create a Linux version. ^_^
