people should not have to spend 100 hours on your game to be able to have an informed conversation about it

my second, possibly even more contentious take is that being anti‐critic is bad

*stares pointedly at all visual novels and games with branching paths or secret endings*

one of my more contentious takes is that if you make a video game with hidden content and you do not provide easy mechanisms for people to access that hidden content then you are anti‐critic

@aescling sounds like this person should be a director or editor or producer instead of a writer

kibi stop typing ˋ when you mean ` challenge

@codl the Unicode Collation Algorithm (section 1.1, Multi-Level Comparison) might be a better starting point lol unicode.org/reports/tr10/#Mult

@monorail i use both styles but i pretty much only use the capitalized and perioded one for things with like, paragraphs

with lowercase style i generally make every sentence its own paragraph; if i'm going to stick three or more sentences in the same paragraph my brain starts inserting capitals

@codl that’s not the current character folding practices (that technical report was withdrawn and never made it out of the “draft stage”)

for identifiers and such, case folding is a core part of the standard defined in CaseFolding.txt and section 5.18 here: unicode.org/versions/latest/ch

for other string comparison operations, including removal of accents, that’s defined as a part of CLDR (which, if you thought the ordinary unicode website was hard to navigate… the CLDR website is even worse lmao)
