  • I'd say it's not a duplicate, as you can achieve obfuscated text, which seems to be OPs actual goal, through other means. Just because their solution attempt is flawed, doesn't mean that a somewhat related question answers theirs.

What you are looking for is called "obfuscated" text, not "cursed".

And while Java Edition still supports using the § symbol internally, the proper way of doing this is using the raw JSON text format. They even try to prevent you from typing it in-game through the client.

Now, depending on where you're trying to get this text the command you use will need to be different, and you can use a generator like https://minecraftjson.com to create more difficult commands or to help you learn how to use it.

Here is an example for obfuscated text in the chat:

/tellraw @a {"text":"This is some cursed text","obfuscated":true}

Here is a slightly larger example

/tellraw @a [{"text":"This is some ","color":"red"},{"text":"cursed","obfuscated":true,"color":"dark_red","bold":true},{"text":" text"}]
