Same post viewed in Lemmy, it's all squashed into the same space as horizontal text.

Not vertical for me :(

I don't know what that stuff in the post in question is, so I just called it vertical text. Until I squinted, I thought it might have been Manchu script :D

Not vertical for me :(

Switch 𐑑 client π‘žπ‘‘ 1) displays vertical text 2) 𐑯 has recursive font support. 𐑓 Mongolian Bichig, Gecko is recommended. (Not by me). Mongolian White is rec. as well.

Like others already mentioned 🧡, Β«ZalgoΒ» is randomized unicode diacritics abuse. If π‘˜π‘Ή client escaped π‘ž diacritics, π‘˜π‘Ή font is displaying diacritics correctly.

𐑖𐑱𐑝𐑾𐑯 subs used
