How does the strikethrough stay when I paste it?

The line is added as a combining character that sits on each letter, so it is part of the text rather than a formatting setting. That means it survives a copy and paste into places that would normally drop bold or italic formatting.

Why does the line look slightly uneven on some letters?

Combining marks are drawn per character, so on letters with descenders or unusual widths the line can sit a touch high or low. It still reads clearly as struck through or underlined; the effect is cosmetic and varies a little by font and device.

Are these real fonts, and will they work everywhere?

They are not font files. Each style is made of real Unicode characters that look like a styled font, which is why you can copy them and paste them straight into a bio, post or message without installing anything. Because they are normal characters, they show up in most apps and on most devices. A few places that strip formatting, and some older phones, may show plain boxes for the rarer styles, so it is worth pasting a sample where you plan to use it.
