What 迃 means
迃 is a variant of 迂, meaning “detour” or, figuratively, “impractical.”
The Shuowen Jiezi, an early Chinese character dictionary, glosses 迃 as “to avoid” and analyzes it as a movement element paired with 于 for its sound. Chinese dictionaries describe 迃 as the original form of 迂. In Japanese, 迂 appears in words for taking a roundabout route and for impractical thinking.
Historical and reference-oriented; ordinary modern Chinese writing uses 迂.

1Why does 迃 show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
