    I'm assuming Unicode in handles is not allowed? At least by Mastodon.

    This user is not able to have their content federated because the username is all Hebrew (I think?) characters!

      Hi @julian,
      as long as nobody cares about the according standards, the #fediverse will be a brittle nerd niche.

      The according standard is IMO https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc7565.html#:~:text=userpart ( #RFC7033 and #RFC7565 ) referring to https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc7564#section-4.2.1.

      What you find in the wild, however, is a different story as thee is no agreed upon #validator service nowhere.

        Hi, hello everyone. I'm sorry to hear that I can't be followed because of my username characters. Does this mean that I can't be followed here on the forum or is it something else?
        Also, should I change my username to English characters?

          Huh. My Lemmy mobile client has the handle and host inverted. It doesn't look like this in the default web UI, though.

          Also, my post from Lemmy hasn't landed here yet.

            For what it's worth, I'm reading this thread from Lemmy and can see this comment of yours and access your profile, so in principle there isn't anything wrong with your username.
