Request to lemmy: can you please allow non-latin letters as well
Request to lemmy: can you please allow non-latin letters as well
I wish it was allowed to have persian letter usernames maybe even symbols as usernames it looks really cool and increases the username pool as well.
You're viewing a single thread.
I see Arabic used from time to time
In usernames?
This user’s name is displayed in Arabic, although the characters in the URL are Latin.
Looks like his username is in latin characters, but he has an arabic display name.
Is it possible to make it in other than latin?
have you ever seen a non-latin char url, ever?
the fedivere is incredibly url/dns dependent. labels/content can be any language (mbin uses weblate to allow for dozens off languages) but the underlying urls that control everything prolly require latin chars
https://ign.中国 ? There's been a standard to encode it as xn-- for a while.
cool! e. cept it redirected immediately to https://www.ign.com.cn/
Welp, at least it works. It's called punycode, and some browsers have disabled it by default due to Cyrillic letters posing a security risk. For non-domains, percent-encoding is available.

Not from an ASCII
Communities display names: https://lemmy.ca/c/maroc
I guess it could work for users display names too
