What is glitch or Zalgo text?
It stacks combining Unicode marks above, through and below each letter for a corrupted, 'glitchy' look. Adjust the intensity from subtle to chaotic.
Why does high-intensity glitch text get cut off?
Some apps limit or trim excessive combining marks. If it looks clipped, lower the intensity or reshuffle.
Where does glitch text work?
Discord, X/Twitter and Instagram generally render it; a few platforms may strip or flatten heavy marks.
