New gTLDs , IDNs, EAI and Linkification issues
UA2018 opened this issue · 2 comments
Many top-level domains (TLD), such as .technology, family, .gay are missing from Facebook's library.
We come across universal acceptance issues when trying to create an account with Unicode emails (email address internationalization), such as 测试5@普遍接受-测试.世界.
Facebook also does not recognize the New gTLDs when typed in the post. It converts the .com domains to clickable hyperlinks, whereas it does not create a link for example.technology.
More and more people from non-Latin language speaking countries are using Facebook. Yet, the new gTLDs, Internationalized Domain Names (IDNs) are not correctly recognized in Facebook.
You may update the TLD listing or automate the update by drawing the content from the DNS root zone or from https://www.iana.org/domains/root/db
Email address internationalization check can be done from https://uasg.tech/eai-check/
