edit - honestly not a troll. is it the specific formatting of “em” dashes? i know for sure we use them all the time. or at least i do. but they’re just dashes to me, so…
All I’m saying is I never saw an emdash on a reddit post until the obvious-for-other-reasons AI posts started using them.
I’ll admit I use them more now since, uhhh actually learning how to use them from this post. Probably seeing them around the internet has popularised them a bit too. Plus on my mobile, it’s just as easy to use a hyphen as an em-dash.
With no spacing around? What the heck. Wikipedia confirms it.
In German, we do spacing around the Gedankenstrich. I find that much more readable. It is also only half an em.
This spunds like frequency illusion https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency_illusion
Also maybe people started using them in spite of these articles–it’s kinda fun!
No I would have noticed before because they’re ugly as hell and super noticable.
