Treat similar looking character as identical when checking blocked words to prevent automodevasion
Treat similar looking character as identical when checking blocked words to prevent automod evasion.
So if the word "Apple" is blocked, the word "Àṗṗĺĕ" would be blocked too.
Blocking every variation of a word would literally take 76 days at 100 terms per 30 seconds (rate limit by Twitch). This is for obvious reasons not a solution. And the current moderation tools are thus obviously insufficiant.

Agreed. There's a certain "buy follows" bot that comes into my channels all the time, using homoglyphs in the message that will never be caught by the blocked terms feature.
