Mostly unrelated to the article, but the title stirred up memories.
~20 years ago I stumbled across the "Ё" license, that granted you all rights you can dream of with one condition, you must use the letter "ё" in its right place all the time. It is a Russian story, with some people loving "ё" and whining that outside of children books you can't find it, and other people trolling the first group by arguing that "ё" was a stupid addition from the very beginning, and even more stupid now.
Sadly I cannot google the text of the license now.
- School-Cotton 2y agoHow often is ё really used by native speakers?
- ordu 2y agoI cannot say numbers, because I don't watch for them... So I took a blog I read regularly, and counted top level comments to some post, I got 10 people used it, 4 didn't use, and 8 didn't use words with "ё", so I cannot say, do they use "ё" or not. So, it seems people use it pretty often. But books "for adults" for some reason use "ё" only when replacing it with "е" leads to ambiguity.
