fsymbols for Unicode weirdness

My display name on Twitter currently looks like @ɢᴇᴏʀɢᴇᴠʀᴇɪʟʟʏ@ᴛᴇᴄʜ.ʟɢʙᴛ, an attempt to route around Twitter’s apparent censorship of Mastodon in­for­ma­tion.

I used the FSymbols Generators to produce several variants.

@𝕘𝕖𝕠𝕣𝕘𝕖𝕧𝕣𝕖𝕚𝕝𝕝𝕪@𝕥𝕖𝕔𝕙.𝕝𝕘𝕓𝕥
ʇqƃʅ.ɥɔǝʇ@ʎʅʅᴉǝɹʌǝƃɹoǝƃ@
@𝗀𝖾𝗈𝗋𝗀𝖾𝗏𝗋𝖾𝗂𝗅𝗅𝗒@𝗍𝖾𝖼𝗁.𝗅𝗀𝖻𝗍
@𝘨𝘦𝘰𝘳𝘨𝘦𝘷𝘳𝘦𝘪𝘭𝘭𝘺@𝘵𝘦𝘤𝘩.𝘭𝘨𝘣𝘵
@𝑔𝑒𝑜𝑟𝑔𝑒𝑣𝑟𝑒𝑖𝑙𝑙𝑦@𝑡𝑒𝑐ℎ.𝑙𝑔𝑏𝑡
@𝙜𝙚𝙤𝙧𝙜𝙚𝙫𝙧𝙚𝙞𝙡𝙡𝙮@𝙩𝙚𝙘𝙝.𝙡𝙜𝙗𝙩
@𝚐𝚎𝚘𝚛𝚐𝚎𝚟𝚛𝚎𝚒𝚕𝚕𝚢@𝚝𝚎𝚌𝚑.𝚕𝚐𝚋𝚝
@𝔤𝔢𝔬𝔯𝔤𝔢𝔳𝔯𝔢𝔦𝔩𝔩𝔶@𝔱𝔢𝔠𝔥.𝔩𝔤𝔟𝔱

Many of these variants come from Unicode Block “Math­e­mat­i­cal Al­phanu­mer­ic Symbols”.

There are a lot more things you can do with Unicode than just upside-down text.
