I can't help you with your Desktop Environment accessories, but here
are a couple alternatives:
1) Configure a Compose key, then press <Compose> <o> <o> to make °
2) Do a web search for something like "UTF-8 degree symbol", find a
page that has the glyph you want, and copy it from there with the
mouse.
Doing a Google search right now gave me an "AI Overview" (blech!)
which happened to contain the ° glyph, so I could copy it straight
from there without even needing to open another web page. But in
general, there are several good web pages out there with collections
of glyphs that you can copy from.
But in this particular case, I already know that <Compose> <o> <o>
works for this glyph, so that's what I would go with.
