I’ve just created a PR to allow arbitrary Unicode usernames in #flohmarkt, in a safe fashion: codeberg.org/flohmarkt/flohmar
given github.com/mastodon/mastodon/i I assume this might make @Edent happy :)
Human Web Collective
@Profpatsch @Edent I see this is now merged, has it now been tested against how these new unicode actors will federate across to mastodon and other platforms that don't allow unicode usernames? cc @north
@liaizon @Edent @north It completely fails with mastodon unfortunately, we hope we can create some pressure for then to implement sane internationalization of usernames :)
@liaizon @Edent @north But yeah, it’s exceptionally silly to be a project with an aspiration for international communities, and then not allow people to sign up in their native e.g. Amharic or Han scripts
