## Social text formatter FAQ

### Does bold text work on LinkedIn and Instagram?

The formatter uses Unicode characters that display on most current LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok, and Threads clients.

### Is this real rich text?

No. Social platforms do not offer normal rich-text controls, so the output uses lookalike Unicode letters.

### Should I format the whole post?

Usually no. Format one hook or key phrase. A full post in styled Unicode is harder to read and less accessible.
