Does the filesystem driver of the switch support unicode?

Does the filesystem driver of the switch support unicode?

I think you right. It seems like switch filesystem driver does not support unicode. When I try to copy same files over MTP - they did copy but all non-english characters replaces with empty char.

Maybe then there is sense to do same in ftpd? Replace all non-english characters with empty char. Or even better - transliterate them?

This is a Switch OS bug, not an ftpd one. I would expect that MTP did the same thing as ftpd; the blank characters are display-only due to limited font.
