Strikethrough Text Generator - Crossed Out, Cross Out & Strikeout Text

What is crossed out, strikeout, and cross-out text?

Strikethrough text uses Unicode mathematical or symbolic characters that visually resemble crossed-out text - perfect for sarcasm. Unlike HTML or markdown formatting, these are actual Unicode code points - meaning they survive copy-paste into any plain-text field, including Instagram bios, TikTok usernames, Twitter profiles, and Discord nicknames.

The style works on all platforms that support Unicode, which includes every modern smartphone and browser. Supported platforms include: Instagram, TikTok, X (Twitter), Discord, Facebook, LinkedIn.

This generator covers several ways people describe the same effect: strikethrough text, crossed out text, cross out text, crossed text, strikeout text, and x-out text.

If someone searches for a crossed out font, they usually want copy-ready text that works in social bios, captions, comments, and chat fields after paste.
