The signature style for vaporwave, synthwave and 90s-aesthetic projects: titles, playlist names, product labels and poster text. Pair it with a plain-text line underneath, because fullwidth text is hard to read in bulk.
Because they are designed to occupy the same width as a CJK ideograph — normally twice the advance width of a Latin letter. In a proportional font the effect is a wide, airy look; in a monospaced font the letters line up on a strict two-column grid.
No. Ｖａｐｏｒｗａｖｅ is a different string from Vaporwave, so search, hashtags and filters will not match it. Always include a normal-text version of any name you want people to find.
Yes — fullwidth text includes a wider space where you type one, so a sentence spreads out noticeably. Keep phrases short and remember that some fields count each fullwidth character as several bytes.
Only letters and digits in the Latin alphabet have fullwidth forms. Accented letters, punctuation beyond the basic set and symbols pass through unchanged, which is why fullwidth text with lots of punctuation looks mixed.
