- functionmouse 3mo agoon one hand I wanna say you shouldn't make conflicting names on the other hand what gives them the right to st but not you?

- eru 3mo agoYou can branch out to different alphabets. Embrace unicode.
- zamadatix 3mo agoDoes "shitty" really need a default abbreviation, let alone a 2 letter one? It's already a quite short dictionary word which is easy to type and recognize.
