  • This is a bug caused by an attempted fix of *[Off formatting in comment ending in text in a RTL script](https://meta.codidact.com/questions/278004)*.
  • The aforementioned fix involves setting a left to right override in order for the layout to render in the correct order, but unfortunately this breaks RTL usernames.
  • As a temporary solution to this bug, you can put a [right-to-left override](https://unicode-table.com/en/202E/) at the beginning of your name, which as the name implies overrides the site setting of left to right and fixes the username.

This is a bug caused by an attempted fix of *[Off formatting in comment ending in text in a RTL script](https://meta.codidact.com/questions/278004)*.

The fix involves setting a left to right override in order for the layout to render in the correct order, but unfortunately this breaks RTL usernames.

As a temporary fix, you can put a [right-to-left override](https://unicode-table.com/en/202E/) at the beginning of your name, which as the name implies overrides the site setting of left to right and fixes the username.
