are thorn abbreviations cool in 2018 or nah i can't tell

masto sometimes is like "aw yea þose dang þorns i fuckin luv þᵉ þorn" but i'm always like :thaenkin: but what if i actually wrote like that tho

like are you willing to commit or are you just trashposting again :blobpats:

@kibi No lie I briefly considered actually putting the thorn into my written language years and years ago.

I quickly gave up because that's a lot of work, but it was something I thought about.

@witchfynder_finder i think thorn everywhere can be way too cumbersome (or just… inaccessible is more my concern lol) but i think the "standard" thorn abbreviations of

that: þᵗ
the: þᵉ
this: þˢ

aren't significantly worse than like, writing an ampersand for "and"

Follow

@kibi @witchfynder_finder in my shorthand I do:

the → ð
and → n

I might convert ðat and ðis to ðᵗ and ðˢ?
