I can see both marks. Probably not worth changing the font since I intend to revise the writing system at some point.
I can see them too, but the tilde is rendered to the right of the macron rather than above it. It looks pretty ugly like that.
Here's what I see:
Well, that’s not what I see:

Hm. I'm not seeing that on my laptop either:

It could be a browser issue. On Firefox, Settings -> General -> Language and Appearance or an extension like Font Changer could resolve it.

In any case, I think I'm not allowed to change the font on a free Wordpress account. There is no font option when I edit the post. Going to Appearance -> Design (edit: -> Styles) sends me into a glitched page that asks me to setup donations but nothing responds. I'd have to move it to my Github webpage.

Anyway, thanks for making me aware of the issue. I never noticed it at any point.

Not sure if this counts as creativity, but I wanted to work on my translation skills, so I translated the Jeerio story into Danish:
