Is it safe to use empty character to make highlight name blank?
It safe. The invisible text that are used here, are generated from a globally recognized unicode character. I don’t want to bore you with the detail here, i already explain about the unicode character that i use here. Read there to learn more.
By using this “invisible character”, you can effectively hide the highlight name, creating the illusion of a removed or blank highlight name. However, please note that Instagram may introduce new features or updates in the future, so the availability of removing highlight names entirely may change.
