The 1.19 Font Bug 

we are all a bit confused... because we are in the wild

The Bug Report

The bug report is talking about a problem that has been happening in 1.19 clients:

"Whenever a bitmap character fails to load it causes some other characters to fail to load even if they have a valid configuration."

A lot of modern servers use the texture pack future to make custom ESC screes and make their server look cool...

This is done by changing the default.json file in a texture pack by adding special characters
example:

{
    "providers": [
        {
            "type":"bitmap",
            "file": "minecraft:font/title.png",
            "height": 192,
            "acent": 48,
            "chars": [
                "\uE000"
            ]

        },
        {
            "type":"bitmap",
            "file": "minecraft:font/info.png",
            "height": 192,
            "acent": 48,
            "chars": [
                "\uE001"
            ]

        }
    ]
}

Why This Is A Bug?

This bug affects a lot of servers, it's at the top of the r/Mojira, More than 70+ people think that this should be fixed.
Making this "works as intended" is a mistake and should be examined again...
All other versions of the game don't have such a problem with bitmap characters.
*It's only in 1.19+⚠️ *
Most people can't even upgrade because this bug is such a critical part of the game and a huge problem for server owners
From Reddit:

{*}"Yeah, this feature being bugged cause a lot of problems with custom resources, especially a lot of thing being all over the place now.I wait for this bug to be fixed before upgrading to 1.19.x"{*}

{*}"this feature is widely used, even by big servers like OriginRealms.*"
