A screenshot when I opened the file in vscode: (we can see the unicode characters U+2068 etc. Why is it necessary?

Are you sure, that input not contains this characters or file was not externally modified?

Both: https://github.com/qarmin/szyszka/blob/fb6938cb923de4702f78efb2b42b1c439b528a78/i18n/en/szyszka.ftl#L214

and

not show any non standard non printable characters in https://www.soscisurvey.de/tools/view-chars.php

The presence of such characters not cause any problems, but they are not needed and can be removed

I haven't manually modified the file by myself, I opened it for the first time. I installed using flatpak. 

$ flatpak list | grep sz
Szyszka com.github.qarmin.szyszka   3.0.0   stable  flathub system

My settings in vscode indicates every hidden character.
