Thnks for the review

I don't know if it is bug. If steem blockchain would not accept special characters, user would be unable to post.
May be steemit is not allowing it.

Btw i can be wrong, let see What PO or Mod says. Kindly mention me when mod leave comment as i also need to know.

No other platforms allow it because it breaks the tags. Having special character changes the whole url. I don't understand why even blockchain allows it.

Lets wait for the mod reply.

Mod has reviewed and marked it as a bug

great bro. Already upvoted

Turns out this is major bug
