Description
### Steps to reproduce
Export chat logs as plain text
### Outcome
The text file you get is ANSI. It **_should_** be UTF-8 (or higher).
Because it's not, all the emoji's are mangled as things like: `😅` - I imagine it's even worse for non-English users.
### Operating system

### Application version
1.11.80
### How did you install the app?
_No response_
### Homeserver

### Will you send logs?
