How Zalgo text works
Zalgo text uses Unicode combining diacritical marks — characters that attach to the preceding character rather than occupying their own space. By adding many of them in a row above (U+0300–U+036F) and below (U+0316–U+0333) each letter, the glyphs appear to bleed and glitch. Some platforms may render the marks differently or clip them, and heavy use can slow down a page, so keep the intensity reasonable.
