    I strongly think Lemmy clients should have a toggle to show usernames instead of display names. Some of the Unicode is super obnoxious.

      And now you’re about to nerd-snipe me into checking if control characters are valid for user names in ActivityPub

        There’s probably some restrictions because I tried making an instance that had a user with a completely empty username and it didn’t federate.
