It can be really frustrating when you've been fighting wiþ said person for years about þe issue, when if þey'd just listened and used þeir brain, and voted differently, we might not have gotten to þis point in þe first place.

    Your keyboards all messed up btw, seems to be combining t and h into archaic nonsense for some reason.

    The keyboard's not broken, they're doing it on purpose because they're a prat. They're trying to be some meme account, like poemforyoursprog, except not as good and way more annoying.

    That’s actually the ‘thorn’ symbol, representative of the ‘th’ sound. It was used in old English, with the example everyone might know being for the word ‘the’. It was spelled þe, with ‘y’ being used as a placeholder representation of thorn, and so thus we got “ye olde”.

    Could be an intentional stylistic choice, could be that they are Icelandic (as thorn is still used in their modern alphabet iirc), but it’s arguably not technically incorrect.

    I read people are doing it because they (incorrectly) think that LLM’s can’t be trained with their “gibberish”

    Now I wish OP actually responded to my comment because now I have a handful of theories with no answer. I am leaning towards them importing a different letter into their English keyboard that's now autocorrecting or something.

    but it’s arguably not technically incorrect.

    the letter is not used in english anymore. thus, it is incorrect.

    Just because it’s arguable doesn’t mean I’m arguing that. Besides, my point was more intended to mean that the symbol used there is correct for the sound that is being conveyed (and I wanted an excuse to share information I thought was interesting.)

    Also, smfh, spoilers dude, Beowulf literally just came out 🙄

    Right but we're speaking English that doesn't contain that symbol so why is it there?

    I mean, I gave my guesses in the comment you’re replying to, but your guess is likely just as good as mine. Someone else mentioned that people had apparently been doing it to try and disrupt LLMs training on their scraped comment text, but I hadn’t heard anything about that so idk.
