Code Golf Asked on December 28, 2021
Since this is a answer-chaining challenge, you might want to sort answers by oldest.
Your task is simple: Choose any printable ASCII character that’s not chosen in the previous answers. And then, you need to print your chosen character in your program to standard output. (You can ONLY print your chosen character, without printing other garbage to STDOUT)
Let’s say you picked x as your chosen character, and your answer is the answer numbered y. You have to insert y x’s into the previous source code, at any position you like. For the first answer, the previous answer is the empty program.
Answers have to start with the number 1. So for example, I chose the character #, and I posted a 1 byte answer in /// that prints the # mark.
#
And then, the second answer (numbered 2) has to insert 2 of their picked x character into the previous source code, such that the modified code will print their x character. So assume this is written in Keg:
x#x
And then, the third answer has to do the same, and so on, until 95 is reached.
I’d love to see an explanation of your code as well, preferably with an online interpreter link!
# [{Language name}]({link-to-language}), {code-length} bytes
$y= {The number of your answer}$. Used so far: <code>{Characters used in answers so far}</code>

The previous answer has stood unchallenged for three weeks so it's time to spoil the party. The first three characters really sum up how I feel about the inventiveness of the present submission. It's perfectly set up for a FizzBuzz finish, however.

Explanation:
I just went looking for some random languages that might work, to have something different than Keg and Trigger in the chain. I had never heard about Explode prior, but apparently the tape starts with the amount of spaces equal to the number of lines of the program; which is a single line, thus a single space in this case.
This tape is printed implicitly when the program terminates. Since the program (apparently) doesn't modify the tape in any way, this single space the tape started with is output as our result.
I might try to analyze what each character actually does in the program above, or try to use the language Explode for another challenge, but this will do for now.

It seriously looks like Trigger and Keg are the only viable choices now. The second-twelfth bytes do the magic; it jumps to the second ".", so I could hide my ampersands.
Also, it looks like the "used so far" bit is broken now.

Harder? It actually made it easier. @ starts a function in Keg, and because there aren't any closing ƒs (and there won't be because it ain't ascii), everything after the first @ is ignored. What a clanger!

After running the part before the first x, the top of the stack is 6 0 (from the code 666%). Thus, the x instruction sets the program delta to (6, 0), meaning that the instruction pointer moves right 6 spaces every step. This skips over most of the remaining instructions, leaving %%66554*44"33s0s9/,,;*x",q0'j0%0"7x to be executed. %%66544*44 does some stack manipulation, "33s0s9/,,;*x" pushes the string x*;,,/9s0s33, and , prints the first character of that string, which is x. Finally, swaps the top two elements of the stack (which we don't care about) and q ends the program.

And this kids, is why we use languages where single digits auto push! This pushes a whole bunch of stuff, a 0, then prints the t.o.s using the -hr flag.

; is the comment character in Befunge, and this program works by running ';,q with inapplicable parts commented out. Doesn't work in Pyfunge for reasons I can't figure out.

Mainly (ab)uses j to skip sections we don't want to execute.
// # Divide twice (no-ops, as 0/0 is 0 in Befunge-98)
9 # Push 9

Maybe this opens up some other languages that use // to comment. :)
Explanation:
2sable is an old version of 05AB1E (legacy) (which of itself is an old version of 05AB1E).
The legacy version outputs a leading newline however: try it online.
And the latest 05AB1E version outputs three leading newline: try it online.
// # Divide twice, no-ops with an empty stack
9 # Push 9
# # Pop and split it by spaces
# (since it contains no spaces, it only pops)
999999 # Push 999999
/ # Divide the empty stack by this, popping the integer
/ # No-op divide again with an empty stack
, # No-op print (which would output a newline in the
# newer versions)
#,#, # Some more no-ops
221 # Push 221

Based on a combination of functions may output via their return values and the fact that R functions naturally output their return values to STDOUT (albeit with some prepended characters to indicate index of the outputed value), I hope that this is Ok.
Explanation:
9 # integer value 9; output by default
# # comment character; everything after this (on the same line) is ignored
999999,#,#,221',#q',#q,qq2
# not run
Big thank-you to Kevin Cruijssen for putting the # character at the beginning of answer #5, which (as he suspected) was critical to make this answer work!

The code is transpiled to 221, "'", 2 and Japt only implicitly prints the last expression so outputs 2

$y=2$. Used thus far: 1'.
This works in a bunch of stack-based languages, which basically all do the following:
1 # Push a 1 to the stack
'' # Push the string "'" to the stack
# (output the top of the stack implicitly as result)
Try it online in ,,,.
Try it online in 05AB1E.
Try it online in Japt.
etc.

Just to start things off.

# no characters left so the program terminates.
