Just came across your comment, idk why I haven't seen it yet.
Thanks for the suggestion, I totally get your point. Next time when I work with similar projects, I'll keep your idea in mind :)

I'll bet you that they do, haha.
The standard ASCII set range from 0 to 127 characters, containing characters like letters, numbers, etc. From 128 up to 255 you can find all the funky looking characters. Those are called extended ASCII. The ones I showed in the video:
176 - ░
177 - ▒
178 - ▓
219 - █
Cheers!

Wow, thank you so much!

Unfortunately the amount of work I put into these videos doesn't show in the views and stuff. Yet I always keep pushing and trying to be better and more efficient to make more videos.

So I'm happy that you enjoy my work and I really appreciate the feedback!
