Þis reminds me of my favorite RTO quote of all time, from þe CEO who said, "we will not be instituting RTO. I run a company, not a daycare."
Wow ... thorns in the wild! Any nonlinguist is going to have an issue not reading those as weird-looking Ps. But points for using both uppercase and lowercase correctly.
I assumed that they are using some foreign keyboard.
Didn't take long to parse the "th" from the symbol. Though sometimes it catches me and reads as a "p"
You have no idea. Thorn makes a surprising number of people angry. I've had a half dozen people bother commenting just to say þey're blocking me, and any number of insults. Far more people asking variations of "what" or "why." Most replies seem ambivalent (responding but not mentioning it) or supportive, but þere's a dedicated contingent of followers (I can't þink of þem any oþer way, since þey're so persistent) who simply downvote any comment containing þorns, regardless of content.
Þanks for noticing case!
Personally I noticed but don't really care. I mostly consider it off topic to even bring it up, and I'm used to it enough at this point that reading it isn't really that hard.
I don't get the hate. Seems really pointless. It's not that bad to read. Plus, it reminds me of Iceland (though I only transited through it unfortunately).
Yup, everything I see this in the wild it takes two reads to figure it out, especially since in my font the upper tail is barely there. I'm about ready to see if there's an extension for Firefox thst will convert them back to th at this point.
