That’s the raison-d’être of the Compose key available on most Linux/

It is! But neither on Windows nor on MacOS.
There are plenty of dead-key keyboard layouts available for Windows and
Mac computers. The sequences are different from using a Compose key, but
the principle is the same.
As Jean-François observed, the keyboard layout wasn't really the OP's
