A problem with tone tags that I don’t think anyone realized we’d have is that, because the people who use/need tone tags most are neurodivergent, we tend to interpret them differently.
I have friends who have expressed they don’t like /gen because it feels insincere. I have other friends who love /gen (myself included) because they have anxiety and it reassures them that I mean what I say. I can’t use /nm around a couple people because it reads to them like I am indeed mad. Sometimes /nav reads as intended, and sometimes it doesn’t. At some point I started using /silly instead of /j because it made more sense to me, but then I have to explain it because that’s just a whole extra word attached to the end. Don’t even get me started on what /hj means to everyone
