VAPORWAVE
Fullwidth characters are the East Asian forms of the Latin alphabet, drawn at the width of a Chinese character. Using them for English gives the stretched, spacious look associated with vaporwave art. The page also offers extra letter spacing and a star framed version.
Spaces become ideographic spaces in the fullwidth styles so that words keep their wide gaps.
No. These are Unicode characters that happen to look like styled letters, so they paste into any app that accepts text, with no font installation. Because they are different characters from normal letters, search and screen readers may handle them differently.
Often in display names but rarely in handles, which are limited to basic letters.
Fullwidth letters take twice the room of normal ones by design.
