A Comprehensive Guide to Twitter Symbology
made by @deltritus
Assigning a meaning to a certain symbol and including it within one's display name or bio has recently become a widespread practice among twitter users. This carrd will explain the meanings behind those symbols. Please note that they are not always used with the intention of putting across a deeper meaning. If they're around other symbols, usually with similar meanings, it signifies that they are representative of something deeper than the aesthetic appeal.
