Mx, please. Thanks anyway!
What in the world is MX? MX Linux?
It's a title. Like Mr or Mrs.
What does it mean though?
Well, in this context, it was my response to you saying "mister/miss". I am non-binary, so "Mx" (pronounced "mix" or "mux") is a more appropriate choice.
It also goes at the start of a name, so my full name would be Mx. Hellfire One O'Three (using my username as an example, so as to not give out my real name).
I suppose you could use "mistrum" instead, since it's gramatically correct; but this isn'y widely used.
I'll stay with mine. Bad and intentionally bad advices happen yk? I don't want to accept an advice about something I've never heard before and then suddenly get attacked for it everywhere.
