- VectorLock 3y agoWhat's up with these guys not using capital letters?
- furyofantares 3y agoIME that's been common or the norm in plenty of circles for more than 25 years (so probably longer). It became less common when people started phone-posting and when phones started auto-capitalizing by default.
- 4death4 3y agoBut it seems like an intentional choice. The default settings on a phone will capitalize automatically.

- jq-r 3y agoTo be fair, we're on a geek website. Not many have default settings on any of their devices. It think the above is consequence of a "I can afford to write all lowercase/do unconventional thing X". And by "afford" I think here more like "I don't have bosses, nor do I have to please anyone doing conventional things". There was an article or a discussion here a while ago how in a organizational pyramid the people on the botton usually write as normal/nice as possible, while going upwards; people can afford themselves to write however the like, including being super rude if they choose so.
