The deliberate choice of committing such a basic mistake of lower-casing the beginning of all sentences is an insult. I am afraid of reading it, becoming desensitized, and starting to do the same.
- gk1 10mo agoIt’s not a mistake, it’s a choice. Quite a common one among younger people who grew up using Slack at work and iMessage everywhere else.
- ReluctantLaser 10mo agoWhy is that important to you? The way you write about it feels like you're going to be infected by it, altered by it, if you read it fully. Seems like an odd reaction.
- shark1 10mo agoTotally. It really annoys me. I get distracted. The writer misses to accurately transmit the piece of information at its full extent.

So you could say that we are mixing two completely different scripts. This becomes very clear when you look at a text written entirely in lowercase letters: the typeface is so uniform that I, at least, find it very pleasant to look at. Unfortunately, this is not the norm. Instead, I am condemned to live in a world where I have to look at writing consisting of two obviously thrown-together scripts day in and day out. Schopenhauer was right: the world is a vale of tears!
