Fonts & Fancy Text

"Fancy fonts" on the internet aren't really fonts โ€” they're Unicode tricks. Letters from mathematical alphabets, decorative scripts, and circled glyphs all map to the same renderer your phone already has, which is why bold copy survives a paste into Instagram while genuine custom fonts don't.

This hub explains how that works, where it breaks (screen readers, search, some Android keyboards), and which styles are safe to ship in a bio without burning trust.
