Re:How to Use Em Dashes (–), En Dashes (–), and Hyphens (-) by zajio1am on Friday March 28, 2025 @07:58AM (#43504265)
Visual style of hyphen-minus depends on font. Some fonts displays it more like a minus, others like a hyphen. So if you care about distinguishing hyphen and minus, it makes sense to use dedicated hyphen and minus, and do not use hyphen-minus at all.
