- michaelcampbell 4y agoExactly that. I'm in the US and see it, but didn't know it was a US "thing". But yes, that.
- smcl 4y agoIt could also just be a new thing for English overall that I've associated more with the USA because I listen to or watch a lot of American podcasts, videos and streamers. I'm not the type who gets worked up at American vs British English :-)
