I saw in Joomla only a button for converting standard components to utf8mb4, but I did not see such a button to convert all the other components.

I suggest adding this button for converting all fields of the database to utf8mb4.

I do not know when extension developers will make such a button for their extensions. I have a database in three different encodings, a database for the site because of different extensions.

For example, I can use Emoji characters only in standart Joomla components, but I can not use these characters in some other components on the site, for example, in the JComments comment component and others.

This is really a big problem now. Please make a button for converting all the site tables into utf8mb4.

Joomla should never touch the database tables of anything else. If your component doesn't support utf8mb4 then you should speak to them.

Closing as not Joomla core.
