It works :)

π‘Όπ’π’Šπ’„π’π’…π’† 𝑻𝒆𝒙𝒕 π‘ͺ𝒐𝒏𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒕𝒆𝒓

comes in a fancy bold italic font in my HN list. I love this hack.

Oddly in Firefox the tab name showing the title only gets as far as π‘Όπ’π’Šπ’„π’ before giving up with what looks like a box with D835 in it.

The tab name is shortened in the middle of the sequence.

I still don't know what the sequence is though, any Unicode expert to explain? Apparently is d835 "invalid"?

Edit: I see now emillon explains:

"U+1D48F whose UTF-16 BE encoding is d8 35 dc 8f."

That's:

"MATHEMATICAL BOLD ITALIC SMALL N"
