    I know about it, but didn’t recognize the code. So I assumed, they encoded some text to make it harder to read. So I tried decoding it.

    Turns out, if you decode this in UTF-16, it turns into a japanese sentence

    契ȑ璝寣䇘앖噣삈

    Which means (according to DeepL)

    The sound of the wind rustling through the trees

    And now I’m confused, why.

      That’s not Japanese, there’s some Chinese and Korean characters in there too. Turns out if you decode random bytes as UTF chars you will probably get a CJK character lol
