Thank you so much for creating this discussion! I’ve been curious about a few — especially the tiny text ! I generally stumble across many, but for the more complex I just google html code (and then the name of the symbol I’m looking for), find the symbol and then copy and paste :)

On a mac, I usually just go to Edit→ Special Characters… and select Symbols, Miscellaneous Symbols. Click on and then click Insert. ☕
