Fun fact: ẞ, ẞ’s lowercase, ẞ’s lowercase’s uppercase, and ẞ’s lowercase’s uppercase’s lowercase are four separate strings.

Yep, because ẞ is only a relatively new thing, and still not really standardized in most places.

  • ẞ lowercase is ß (which is correct, as in Gießen - GIEẞEN)

  • ß uppercase is SS (which is correct, as in gießen - GIESSEN)

  • SS lowercase is ss (which is correct, as in Hessen - HESSEN)
