About the inverse bullet symbol

Inverse Bullet is a typographic symbol that appears as a filled circle with a smaller hollow circle or dot at its center, reversing the typical solid bullet form. It belongs to the Geometric Shapes block and is categorized as an Other Symbol, used primarily in text-based interfaces and legacy computing systems. The character sometimes serves as a visual marker in lists, menus, or data displays, offering an alternative to standard bullet points in plain-text environments. Its inverted design helps it stand out when placed alongside ordinary bullets or other basic shapes, though it is not commonly found in modern user interfaces or digital communication.
