I think you meant x2022 a.k.a. (dec)8226 :-)

8226 or x2022 is the same number, so whatever it is, it should work

And maybe those will work the same as &bull; on all modern browser now.

But that was not my experience in the past.

Perhaps you would care to extend your browsercam test to some
regression testing of more ancient browsers -- on Mac OS.
