So... what's your point? Your only contribution to the data that I have access to is far more supportive of the position that "good punctuation means AI" than any other example in this thread.
I want to highlight that I've never actually said anything about what this data might indicate; any conclusions, value judgements or wild guesses as to what this data might show are entirely your own (and those assumptions should probably be examined). I don't really care that you don't have access to an emdash on mobile lemmy (you do btw, markdown will replace
---with an emdash), I don't really care about this topic, I was just having fun scraping data to gently tease someone about their typing habits.Please don't contribute to a hostile environment where you ascribe deeper motivations to dumb comments.
I do appreciate the data. I was only noting that Lemmy is wholly unrepresentative of my typical writing style for everything to which I attach my name; I write Lemmy comments on my phone, and I write anything public-facing with my name attached to it on my keyboard.
My phone doesn't convert---to an em dash. Let's see if this comment does.
Edit: nope. No em dash. I wish.
Yeah, and that's fine - I wasn't trying to represent this as anything, really, but especially not that it was somehow representative of broader trends off of lemmy.
(Huh, odd. It's replacing it for me on lemmy mobile, boost and on PC. wonder why it's not for you)

Apartmently I need to use Boost! I've been using Thunder for a while because it's FOSS. I'll give Boost a shot. Thanks for the heads up.
