@FediTips Weird spelling or the use of emoji may also impact screenreader use. I haven't tested out myself what "patr€on" sounds like, and while 🍏🍏 may be obvious to (some) sighted users, I'm not sure about anyone else. (Though honestly, it wasn't obvious to me without the context of the post.)

@june_thalia_michael

It's a really bad idea to use non-standard characters for stylistic reasons, it does affect screen readers significantly.

I think patr€on would sound like "patr" "euro sign" "on".

@FediTips Yeah. I know about the "please don't use unicode for prettier fonds" thing, but it also affects on the smaller scale.
That's awful. (And really not necessary here, as posts containing the word are not shadowbanned or restricted or anything.)
