    i seriously do not understand what’s up with some of you, why do you spell stuff like in “m$”. The extra work to type it like this doesn’t matter at all. It makes no difference, Microsoft will not shut down because you spelled their name as “micro$oft” on your lemmy post or something like that. why do you keep doing this, i don’t understand.

      If I were to take a guess, it’s probably just a censorship joke. Censoring the word implies that it is inappropriate to say. Like when people say Fr*ench".

      It’s literally one more keystrokes, and people who do it often in a phone probably have it autocomplete. This message took much longer to write than probably every single time the OP has written MS as M$.
