> Emojis are terrible

Not just emojis. Recently I've had some fun trying weird Unicode characters in different terminals (e.g. 𒐫):

- QTerminal/Konsole: Tofu

- Xfce terminal: Results in overlaps with characters that comes after it.

- Alacritty: Similar to Xfce terminal, but glitches when the cursor/glyph moves.

- COSMIC term: No overlapping glyphs, except that the line then wraps only after it grows out of screen.

- Kitty/WezTerm: Scales the glyph to fit it into a single column. (Barely legible.)

I don't even known what to expect. It is indeed a mess over there.
