i remember hearing that sometimes C is used in place of 4⁄4, and ¢ in place of 2⁄4 in time signatures, but i also remember hearing there were others, does anyone know about this?

I don’t actually know what the difference between those two is apart from notation

Maybe it is notation who knows

well like the difference between ¾ and 6⁄8 (despite them being equivalent fractions) is that ¾ is like “ONE and TWO and THREE and ONE and TWO and THREE and” where 6⁄8 is like “ONE and a TWO and a ONE and a TWO and a“

¢ means it’s 2/4 but the beats are on the off beat like -x-x instead of x-x- where the Xs are beats (I think)

I think its 2/2 time (not 2/4 time)

really? I thought ¢ didn’t say anything about which beats are accented
