Frequently Asked Questions

What is Zalgo text?
Zalgo text adds Unicode combining diacritical marks — small characters that attach above and below base letters — to create a chaotic, overflowing appearance that looks glitched or corrupted.
Is Zalgo text harmful to websites or apps?
Zalgo text is just Unicode and is not harmful. However, some older apps or databases that cannot handle large numbers of combining characters may display it oddly or truncate it.
Can I control how intense the effect is?
Yes. The intensity slider lets you choose between subtle corruption (a few diacritics per character) and extreme chaos (dozens of marks per character).
