What 🮋 means

It fills seven eighths of a fixed-width character cell from the right.

Text-mode graphics use characters like tiles to build low-resolution pictures and panels; that is semigraphics. This wider family was used in UK teletext in the early 1970s and on home microcomputers from the mid-1970s to mid-1980s. A Unicode table of legacy-computing characters links this shape to graphics positions in the PET/VIC-20 and C64/C128 character sets.

Why does 🮋 show as a box?

A box usually means the current font lacks a drawing for it.

Its display is font-dependent: the character stays the same, but a font without this glyph may show a missing-character box. A monospaced font keeps neighboring cells aligned in text pictures.

Don't confuse it with

▐

Right Half Block

▐ is the right half block, so it fills half a cell; 🮋 fills seven eighths.

Combination ideas

Why does 🮋 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.
