What is Strikethrough Text?
Strikethrough text is a typographical presentation of words with a horizontal line through their center, effectively "crossing them out." While HTML uses the <s> tag, social media platforms often don't support it. Our tool uses Unicode characters to create a strikethrough effect that works everywhere.
Common Uses:
- Irony & Sarcasm: Crossing out what you really think to reveal a "polite" version.
- To-Do Lists: Visually marking tasks as completed in simple text apps.
- Aesthetic Bios: Adding a unique visual style to your Instagram or TikTok profile.
How it Works
The tool takes your input and inserts a "Combining Strikethrough Overlay" character (Unicode U+0336) after every letter. This tells the computer to draw a line over the preceding character, resulting in a seamless crossed-out look.
