Unclear to me whether it would be useful to explicitly mention that it's _not_ available on iOS/macOS and the BSDs, since that's the caveat I usually give when recommending %m to people.We can omit that for now, but please not it in the commit message.s/not/note/quoted

Technically this is available on Android from API level 29, if we wanted to be more specific.Yep, that might be useful. Thanks! Have a lovely day! Alexquoted
