Crash scrolling feed

[Efreak]

I get this crash while scrolling my feed in the app, took quite a while to track it down. Going by the error, I'm guessing it's an issue with a release. I'm trying now to figure out which release it is.

It seems a release uses a non ASCII character, maybe an emoji?

Why should anyone include an emoji on the release name?

To fix it we should sanitize the release name before updating the view

I myself use emojis in release name, its fun.

Instead of sanitizing I would suggest you simple add support with the help of emoji library with is an extension library for app-compat library
