How strikethrough text works
The mark U+0336 follows each eligible plain or supported styled letter and digit. It does not alter spaces, punctuation, existing accents, emoji or other scripts. Rendering varies by font and application.
Where it helps
Keep struck text short. A screen reader may not convey the visual deletion, so write the change in words if the distinction matters.
Strikethrough text for jokes and edits
Strikethrough adds a combining line through each character: s̶t̶r̶i̶k̶e̶. It is a favorite for self-correcting jokes (“I’m ̶t̶i̶r̶e̶d̶ fine”), sale prices and to-do lists in apps without formatting.
Does Discord need this?
Discord already supports ~~strikethrough~~ formatting in messages, which is more accessible. Use Unicode strikethrough in places without formatting, such as bios and display names.
Will this text work on Instagram, TikTok and Discord?
Usually, in bios, captions, posts, comments and display names, because the result is ordinary Unicode text rather than a font. Usernames and handles normally allow only basic letters, numbers, periods and underscores, so styled letters are rejected there. Paste once and check the preview in the app before saving.
