I honestly doubt that works. If Reddit really has a blacklist of keywords it's almost certainly accounting for this kind of thing.
Honestly, no. People are pretty bad at filtering for Unicode alternative characters. It can be worked around when the site admins understand what's going on, but...have fun skimming all of the Unicode code pages for every possible lookalike character.
Its their job to do this but I think OP is right, we need to try. As much as it sucks, marketing is important to succeed in the long run. Not trying to get the whole of reddit in here but if they can manage to not talk about us we would have a problem I believe.
