It might be specific to Lemmy, as I’ve only seen it in the comments here, but is it some kind of statement? It can’t possibly be easier than just writing “th”? And in many comments I see “th” and “þ” being used interchangeably.

    All this hate for a little quirky difference!

    You’re supposed to grow out of hating people for being different when you’re in school, and if you never reach that level of tolerance/maturity, join the Republican party.

    There are people in this thread acting like homophobic boomers freaking out over boys having long hair: “I’VE TOLD YOU IT’S WRONG AND YET YOU PERSIST. YOU’RE JUST TRYING TO MAKE ME ANGRY. WHY DO YOU INSIST ON MAKING ME ANGRY?” Er, we were just having fun.

      Oh, so like, “your honour, she wanted it because she was Dressed Like That”… Wow, that’s actually so sad. Cultural quality in lemmy truly has degraded.
