Wheelchar, not wheelchair
My screen says WheelchairArtist. What am I missing?
I don't know what the actual terminology here is. The display name is "WheelchairArtist" but the underlying account name - the one that shows up in the URL if you go to their profile - is missing the i. I have no idea if that's a typo on account creation or something intentional.
Weird, the display name in my Lemmy client doesn't have the i, which is why I made the comment.
Not all instances/clients show those display names. I'm on kbin.earth and it doesn't, I just see the underlying account name. It sounds like you're seeing the same. But if I go look at Wheelchar's profile on lemmy.world, which is their instance, it shows both "WheelchairArtist" and "@WheelcharArtist"
Must be a typo in the account name, which is what I'm seeing then.
Huh, thats weird. My client says wheelchar 🤷♂️
Weird, on Jerboa I see wheelchair and don't see "Wheelchair" anywhere.
