@Siphonay
it's crazy that in 2017 some modern windows software crash or don't want properly just because I have the character "é" in my user name
for example, OBS Studio creates this folder instead of using my actual one https://octodon.social/media/JH6R7gSelcltQ1e8egM
@Siphonay because usernames must not have non-ASCII chars. 'Siphonay' would juuuuust work fine for that, and you can use your real name properly as your user full name.
@problemo yeah, alphanumeric:
something like /^[A-Za-z-_][A-Za-z-0-9_]+$/
@Siphonay
Crazy and incompetent. I support efforts to hunt down those programmers and have them beheaded!
@Siphonay when I was running an online radio station I had to reject so much software, as I was rebroadcasting German hard techno mixes, which (not unreasonably) had titles in German and a lot of USA designed software choked on these (that which was more widely used in Europe was at least better).
For work databases/software I insist they are fully unicode compatible as many of our staff are from countries where they might have accented characters in their names..
