An uncommon variant of 写


I ran into the sentence below. The meaning is clear and when copying and
pasting the _kanji_ I get: 写. I wonder how common such a form of the _kanji_
is. Is it just a different font?

You're seeing a Mainland Chinese font.

The Mainland Chinese shape is out of place with the others, and was influenced
by the common shape of「与」, for which the Japanese shape is out of place with
the others.

Note,「写」and「与」are completely unrelated characters.
