Ugh, there are those of us that are fully aware of the proper uses for en dashes and em dashes, and I'm not going to stop properly using my em dashes just so people don't think sending them an AI generated response.

Another comment mentioned a "giveaway" is the "there dots but as one character". I don't know about y'all's keyboards, but if I type an ellipses my phone's keyboard automatically changes it to a single character of three dots and has been doing so for years.

    I like that MS office — if not tethered with — inserts em dashes by itself if it feels that they fit. Unlike the Reddit post maker window.
