  • Ah, I see. It’s moreso like “people from this location put currency symbols after numbers” not specifically dollar signs. Like, we put currency symbols before the numbers in American English eg “Oh, that’s $12.00” or “Oh, that’s €12.00.” A german, writing in dutch, would write “Oh, das sind 12,00 $” or “Oh, das sind 12,00 €.” Many more countries do this like Poland, the Netherlands I think, etc. It’s pretty common. But like the other user said, in Quebec specifically (because French lol) since they use the canadian dollar and the canadian dollar is $ for them (though, in the US we just use CAD instead, so we’d write CAD 12.00 in america whereas a canadian would write $12.00 in canada for the same currency)

    I’ve been satisfied with IRC, that was social enough for me as an autistic kid yes. I’ve not had the luxury of developing a high standard of social interaction for my daily life.

    I understand normal people are not willing to give up those unnecessary things like centralized and profiteered software. I think it’s hilarious and laugh at them:) I enjoy the 3 or so friends I text regularly and the people I meet in real life. I understand most people aren’t willing to live within those means, but that doesn’t make it any less funny.
