My position isn't specifically anglocentric (I'm not English myself), and like I said, it makes a lot of sense to allow more characters, but it opens up a lot of pitfalls. Banning mixed script is definitely a great idea.
- ttepasse 4y agoThe ß is not really mixed script: It’s a (mostly) normal character in the german language which itself is based on latin script. It’s part of common words in the language and part of personal names, including mine. I’d rather like having the ability to register a domain with my last name and was rather annoyed that the Internet infrastructure made that difficult, first with ASCII–centrism, then with IDNA2003 and now with a decades long transition.
