The initialism is decades older than any iDevice. Go complain to people on USENET from before you were born.
While true, it is a pretty bad acronym. IANAL on mobile is more cumbersome to write than, "I'm no lawyer/I'm not a lawyer," and it's safe to say the majority of folks using social media are on mobile.
Not really though. It’s a caps lock + 5 letters. It’s still faster and less cumbersome than a multiple word phrase
On mobile, the initialism takes a third or less as much time for me vs typing it out.
You must type it out a lot then, my autocorrect doesn't pick it up.
What if you want to tell someone that you're not a lawyer, but you are into anal? Then it's just efficient.
Sounds like you need to take your sex toy out, it seems to be chafing you.
If you don’t want to see the initialism anymore, you could submit a PR to your Lemmy app that allows users like yourself to automatically expand it and similar initialisms and other shorthands in other people’s comments (preferably in a slightly different color so that it’s clear what happened when an word is erroneously or incorrectly expanded).
I upgraded to the iAnal Max 8 Pro and it's the best money I've ever spent.
