I'm guessing that character is a native button on their keyboard? Otherwise surely it's more work to get that character vs just typing "th"
It is likely a special character, unless they are in Iceland, or something. However, you can just map it to a key. Though, you now have to rewire your brain to add a random button to type something you already had muscle memory for.
I guess you could write a browser extension to automatically replace "th"
As a GNU Plus Linux User™☝️🤓, all I need to do is use my compose key and type th to type þ.
