What ∉ is for

The negated membership sign: x ∉ S says x is not in S. The stroke through it follows the same rule as the not-equal sign, where a slash negates whatever it crosses.

How to type ∉

The shortcuts below are the built-in routes. With Emoji Anywhere installed you can skip all of them and type :not_an_element_of: in any text field instead, which is the same on every platform.

macOS

No direct shortcut. Use Edit → Emoji & Symbols, or switch to the Unicode Hex Input source and type 2209 with Option held.

Windows

No Alt code. In Word, type 2209 then press Alt + X. Elsewhere use the emoji panel with Win + Period, or Character Map.
