Doesn't seem to work on Android devices. All I see is missing unicode characters. Roboto doesn't seem to have have these glyphs. On Mac, most of the glyps in the title seem to be from STIX font.

In the end abuse of these characters will lead to even more variants being created covering the accented letters too. You can't leave out all the languages that have an extended alphabet, can you?

I don't see why screen readers can't just be extended to handle characters that look like F.
What do you think the general development budget for a screen reader is compared to the development budget for Google Search services?
This is (ab)using unicode, for example the F is actually a Mathematical Bold Fraktur Capital F: https://www.compart.com/en/unicode/U+1D571 This is terrible for screen readers and the like which are unable to read or understand these unicode characters making accessibility a real concern.
I wonder actually. Google seems to understand these, you can search with them. I wouldn't be surprised if screen readers understand these symbols. They're originally for Mathematics, and I'm sure there's plenty of blind mathematicians.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
Because they have uses outside of the abuse. If you always expect that they're being used improperly, then you mess up the actual use cases.
What would be an example of a string like "𝕙𝕖𝕝𝕝𝕠" appearing in a context where the screen reader should not attempt to pronounce it? Note that in math usage, a lone ℝ should be pronounced exactly the same way as a lone R.

We called those corrupted-looking fonts "Zalgo"

This is fantastic. How does this work?
Very cool. I don't know if this counts as a bug as it's not really the intended use, but if I copy one of the results and then paste it into the "Write something here..." input, all the results then match the pasted style rather than being re-styled.
