Would it help if repository names would support more characters, while profile and org names would not?
This might be actually worth a consideration.
In recent years, there have been a lot of attacks by using lookalike unicode characters, so although technically feasible, many fear to accept non-ASCII characters.
But since repositories of the same author already induce a certain trust, it might be worth taking that one step.
Happy to start the conversation about this in#Forgejo.
