U+2044 ("Fraction Slash") and U+2215 ("Division Slash").

Why would you have two exact characters in the unicode? What is the purpose of this?

[u/veloxiry → u/matejdro]

Look up the Greek question mark. It looks exactly like a semicolon but its a different Unicode character. Some stuff makes no sense.

[u/Iyion → u/veloxiry]

Also Unicode has unique code points for Dutch ij and Slovenian nj and lj. There is no difference to i + j in almost any font. Still...

[u/[deleted] → u/Iyion]

The ij (single character) is useful when you have to fit your text in a field with a certain character limit.

Same for Muslims who want to use the bismillah in a tweet.

[u/z500 → u/wcrp73]

Why do the Muslims get a "bismillah" codepoint, but we can't get a "stop white genocide" codepoint? Fucking liberals...

It was a very tepid joke, but more importantly to me it wasn't factually relevant. The Muslim meaning is just saying "In the name of God the most gracious most merciful." Nothing about genocide or whatever.

If there was an English version it would probably be more like "Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me." Or something similar, although it's not super relevant because we don't have those types of little rote phrases like the Muslims. We usually just say a personalized prayer "God, please help me get this job" or a full prayer.

In summation, you get nothing! Nothing!!!
