Can you see my name?

This is a test of unicode debauchery.

I see it as @josephos@iusearchlinux.fyi, what's the debauchery you're talking about?

It should be invisible, but it apparently doesn't work on federated instances. No name on this reply :D

Oh, how did you do that? unicode invisible chars? That could be abused pretty badly.

Yep, used U+3164 (Hangul filler) for a display name. I guess I'm gonna file an issue on github, this seems really abusable. (And now it seems to work across servers? Maybe it depends on the version?)

Good find! Have you tried if those chars are accepted within usernames as well?

josephos@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 3y (1 reply)

Doesn't seem to work within usernames fortunately.

I can't see your name, but I see it in the status bar of the browser when I mouse over.
