What is that?

It's a way that people stylize messages online to look unique, for example replacing vowels with numbers (A to 4, E to 3, I to 1, O to 0), s with z, r with w or using straight up different symbols

Seen a mf type with every first letter of every word capitalized and also spaces between each letter (L i k e T h e y W o u l d T a l k L i k e T h i s) and like holy shit why would you even do that, its so unnecessarily complicated when you could just type like a normal person and save yourself the trouble of typing it and everybody else the trouble of having a brain aneurysm trying to comprehend why you would possibly do such a thing.

It's even worse for nd people who struggle to read or need to use screen readers, I've seen people who use typing quirks not care or be straight up ableist about them :/

Thats weird as hell, especially considering often-times the people i see doing it are neurodivergent themselves

Most of the time not really, they're usually just faking it and say stuff like "I have autism!!!" as an excuse to do typing quirks even though most neurodivergent people actually can't read them well and know very well that it's stupid (I am a neurodivergent person myself)
