Gentle reminder that camel case hashtags:
1) are considerate of folks using screen readers
2) easier to read in general (have we all forgotten Le Tits Now?)
3) makes you super cool!
@kescher I didn’t know that was called snake case! I love it!
@kescher @paeneultima love the name snake_case! When I set up my instance I had trouble finding camelcase and especially underscored emoji shortcodes for some popular emoji series, and re-uploaded a bunch myself with underscored shortcodes. As far as I can tell the Flan emojis are the only major emoji set that is consistently underscored.
@paeneultima for those who don't know what camel case is: it's writing multiple words together while using uppercase letters for the first letter of a word JustLikeThis
Important to know that hashtags aren't case sensitive, which means we're free to do this.
I wasn't sure about that, initially.
@TerryHancock oooh great point!
@paeneultima Because there's a difference between #penisland and #PenIsland
@paeneultima if only the tag autocomplete on masto used them instead of all lowercase all the time, to the point of very easily accidentally replacing one with the other...
@carcinopithecus is soooooo annoying
@paeneultima We all didn't know about Let Tits Now, but NowWeDo :-)

@paeneultima same for camelCase or snake_case emoji
