I didn’t put nearly as much effort as this post into shape matching but I did try a few other things like

Non-ascii, I tried various subsets of Unicode. There’s the geometric shape area, CJK, dingbats, lots of others

Different fonts - there are lots of different monospace fonts. I even tried non-monospaced fonts tho still drawn in grid

ANSI color style https://16colo.rs/

My results weren’t nearly as good as the ones in this article but just suggesting more ways of exploration

Note: options are buried in the menu. Best to pick a scene other than the default
