Tumblr Font Generator
Tumblr culture has used styled Unicode for as long as the platform has existed, from spaced-out headers to tiny subtitle lines. The styles here lean into that.
All styles
Tumblr
Post bodies, titles, tags and blog descriptions all accept these characters, and the editor leaves them intact rather than sanitising them. Tags are worth protecting: Tumblr's tag search matches literally, so a styled tag becomes its own separate tag nobody browses. Themes with unusual webfonts may fall back to a system font for exotic blocks.
Where people use it

Frequently asked questions
Should I style my tags?
No. Tag search matches the exact characters, so styled tags are effectively invisible to browsers of that tag.
Will my theme render every style?
Most will, but a custom webfont without those glyphs falls back to a system font, so weights can look mismatched.
Does styled text work in asks and replies?
Yes, asks, replies and reblog comments all keep the characters.
