Thanks for your comparison, Denis! There you can see how poorly Microsoft (or ascender fonts?) designed their ẞ. It looks like you took the ß and put it between the capitals.

That’s what I meant with »differing from the capital version«, mach. ẞ and ß should be differ so much, that you can recognise which is which. You are also able to keep apart K an k or F and f. In Segoe or Verdana if you see ẞ or ß alone you wont be able to decide if its a capital or not. The primary requirement of course should be that the ẞ harmonizes with the other capitals.
