The best way to enter arbitrary Unicode characters on Linux I have found is fcitx's https://fcitx-im.org/Unicode
Just press Ctrl-Alt-Shift-U, type (part of) the name of the character and select from the list of results.
— (em dash), ︱ (presentation form for vertical em dash), ⤐ (rightwards two-headed triple-dash arrow), ﷽ (arabic ligature bismillah ar-rahman ar-raheem) are all easy to enter.
