How does Unicode strikethrough text work?

Unicode strikethrough uses combining characters (invisible marks) placed after each letter. The combining long stroke overlay (U+0336) draws a line through each character. This works everywhere Unicode is supported — no special formatting needed.

Does strikethrough text work on Instagram and TikTok?

Yes! Unicode strikethrough works on Instagram bios, TikTok profiles, Twitter/X, Facebook, Discord, WhatsApp, and most platforms. It's actual Unicode characters, not formatting, so it displays everywhere.

What is the difference between Unicode and HTML strikethrough?

HTML strikethrough (<s> or <del> tags) only works in web pages. Unicode strikethrough uses combining characters that work in plain text — social media, messaging apps, documents, and anywhere you can paste text.
