I recently found an old letter from my grandpa to my grandma during the war in Old German handwriting. A lot of spikes. Decided to learn to read it. Nice journey, I recommend. (Not necessarily old GERMAN handwriting, but, you now, old handwriting in your mother tongue).
Cursive is still the main form of writing in Europe, haven't seen many people writing in print/block.
For the longest time I was confused when seeing Americans talk about cursive, because I thought they meant italic print. What they call cursive is just handwriting to me.
Really shows you how US-centric many platforms are, I like seeing other cultures having very different things they deem "normal".
