URL examples, Fediverse ID examples

When I want to create a URL or Fediverse ID that doesn't turn into a link (usually because I want to show an example), I use:

"@" (U+FF20) rather than "@" (U+0040).

And, use "․" (U+2024) rather than "." (U+002E).

They look similar enough that most people cannot tell the difference.

I also use ";" (U+003B) rather than ":" (U+003A) in the URL scheme.

If you have a fediverse account, you can quote this note from your own instance. Search https://mastodon.social/users/reiver/statuses/114511734120277693 on your instance and quote it. (Note that quoting is not supported in Mastodon.)
