Feature request to replace user names having giant blue letters with the corresponding normal letters. More and more people are doing it, and it's annoying. (lemmy.world)

I saw this post way back in September last year (which was quickly removed), and have been seeing this guy's custom name popping up everywhere since. It's very annoying. I'm all for blocking custom characters in display names.

It's a way to complicated suggestion

Instead do a sha256 of @

So veryfancyfakeuser@lemmy.fake

becomes

🌈cb76aae36c😘@lemmy.fake

And just to f with people add some emojis before and after.
