I had the same issue when I was using Anaconda Prompt. When I moved to the Windows Terminal the problem was gone. The difference is that Windows Terminal support much much more UTF-8 characters. � symbols on the left side are Check Mark or Vector or Cross Product . � symbols on the right side are a Block Elements.

So if you want to get rid of these symbols, you have to find a terminal which support these symbols.
