#2078 Markdown renderer corrupts 🆕
Closed: Won't Fix 5 years ago Opened 7 years ago by walters.

The first character in https://pagure.io/fedora-atomic-host-continuous should be 🆕, but appears as mojibake.

This is the same thing as #891 - chardet is guessing the file is encoded with ISO 8859-2 (latin2), but it's actually UTF-8:

$ python3
>>> x = '🆕'
>>> x.encode('utf-8').decode('latin2')
'Ä‘\x9f\x86\x95'

There's not a ton we can do unless we want to start mandating repositories contain only UTF-8-encoded content.

This seems to render fine now (I suspect because the 🆕 has been removed?) and @jcline explained the underlying issue as well as why we can't do much about it, so I'm going to close this ticket as Won't Fix.

Sorry we couldn't be of more help, but thanks for your report nonetheless, it is always appreciated.
