And netflix are gonna make a series about ya

That’s extremely noticeable with left handed people trying to draw on whiteboards

I don’t know, but I would’ve think so. Part of the reason is that almost no one actually learns to read this stuff fluently without using the key and going letter by letter. So getting any significant sample of people to test it on would probably be hard

I can’t read (or write) it without the key, however I’m quite fast if I get to do it. I have thought of trying to learn it completely, mainly to see how hard it would be and what I’d learn (apart from, you know, learning brädgårdschiffer) from learning a “new” alfabet. I’d be interested to see how I view it in comparison to regular Latin script. I speak somewhere between 2 and 4 languages depending on how you count and I’ve found every new one interesting and insightful to learn so it would be fun to see if learning to read a new script fluently would be anywhere near as insightful. Ultimately I’d like to learn Korean or Chinese but that be a major challenge and take a lot of time (also, I could probably not squeeze it in to my formal education with the path I’m going to take so I’d have to do it in my free time)

Yeah, sure you can just substitute out the letters or write them out as is. And thanks for the image, i always get problems with images proxyed through ddg and then my instance

Does one two one representations of the Latin alfabet count? In such case I’d mention a cipher used in Sweden called “brädgårdschiffer”. Here is “hej på dig!” written using brädgårdschiffer with my very sloppy writing on my phone:

It’s decrypted by matching up the shape and amount of dots with the letters in the key below. You look at the edges around the letters and the dots above that square.

I do however think that this chiffer probably exists outside of Sweden under some other name and other letters included (note that W and Q aren’t included in the key. They aren’t really used for in Swedish, apart from loans from other languages)

I’d love to see your attempt at an alternate script for Norwegian. I do however speak Swedish but I could probably use it for Swedish to.

Also, regarding Norwegian while you don’t have any alternate scripts you do have two ways of spelling, right? In Swedish there called “bokmål” and “ny norsk”, but I don’t know the names in Norwegian or English.

Lego figures would love this

I’m 15 years old and live in Europe. Almost all of my friends (and the stranger next to me on the train) use Snapchat. Personally I find it very annoying as my experience mainly consist of getting spammed with meaningless, completely irrelevant and utterly boring selfies by anyone I happen to add. And then, just to make things worse people find it inpolite not to answer with another selfie. And then it’s the chats that kinda work but the UI looks clutterd and half baked. Also messages disappear after a while which is utterly annoying.

At least it would be kinda easy to find people on Snapchat (there’s no reason to ask around for someone’s number) if it wasn’t for the fact that people use the most random pseudonyms imaginable so it’s a pain just to know who is who, and almost impossible to pin down new people.

Also I don’t give it location sharing permission, that shit is creepy as fuck, I don’t want everyone that I kind of vaguely know to know where I am all the time

It took me longer then i want to admit to realise why this is a bad idea
