I don't know how I'm supposed to use "from developer" filter when probably only cvolton doesn't have the display name different from the actual name

Your Solution

Use display names in mod author search instead of usernames, or use both

Sounds like all worthwhile devs are covered then imo

Some developers literally have special characters in their GitHub name.

Some developers literally have special characters in their GitHub name.

in GitHub display names? These aren't used. Example: Uproxide who has the Geode name Roxi and doesn't have a GitHub display name. I meant Geode names by "use display names", idk what chars they can contain.

GitHub usernames (not display names) can't contain special characters:

Username may only contain alphanumeric characters or single hyphens, and cannot begin or end with a hyphen. Username ąśżź is not available. Please choose another.

and they're currently used in the search.

Keyword: single hyphens.
