        I got used to it really quickly.

        It even got me looking up a bunch about old runes. Maybe we should bring back ᛝ, ŋ (ing); then the word thing looks like þŋ or ᚦᛝ

        Same it’s really not that hard. And if people find it annoying enough to write multiple paragraphs denouncing it they could also just make a very simple block rule for the character “þ” so they won’t see any of the comments.

          Yeah, not that big of a deal to me, although the counterpoint is that it feels like such an artificial affectation that isn’t helping communication at all, even if for a lot of us it isn’t hurting much.
