Funny bug in the current implementation, the # emoji is also working as a hashtag.
But they are considering keeping it.

- throwawaycities 3y agoI know on Twitter/X the hashtag emoji isn’t a functional link, but curious why implementing functional hashtag emojis on Bluesky is considered a bug. Sort of related, I’d been waiting like 6 months and finally gained access to Bluesky but never used it because they didn’t allow me to use my emoji domain name(s) as my handle.
- pfraze 3y agoMore of an accident. The hashtag emoji is a combination of code points and guess what the first code point is? ‘#’ The handling is a little wonky but if it doesn’t hurt anything we’ll clean it up and keep it
- throwawaycities 3y agoLife is funny, just last week I learned about a bug on some blockchain explorers where they display certain emojis in code point in base 10 though I think it’s: &# Got to enjoy these kinds of coincidences and happy accidents.
- jameshart 3y agoIt’s not ‘the hashtag emoji’, it’s ’the number key emoji’.
- Phiwise_ 3y ago>they didn’t allow me to use my emoji domain name(s) as my handle. Not that I've been trying to keep up, but this is just about the first Bluesky decision I've heard that I 100% agree with. The usability line needs to be drawn somewhere.
