What's your stance on the Antiqua-Fraktur dispute?
Were Adolf Reinecke's arguments flawed and did Martin Bormann nothing wrong?

Not sure where I stand tbh. Fraktur is comfy and old-timey, can look really cool and it was a cozy time when books were German(Fraktur), Latin(Antiqua) and Greek(Greek). But then again Antiqua harkens back to classical antiquity, Latin culture and the ideals of the enlightenment...
 
Of course Nazi arguments are lowest iq possible at always. Leave it to these faggots to literally use the Jews as an argument for both sides.

My stance is that Fraktur is a separate script and should be encoded in Unicode separately.
 
Proofs:
- in certain German texts, words from Romance languages were spelled in Antiqua in-line with the rest of the text in Fraktur
- different rules on spacing of letters and ligatures from Antiqua
 
Meanwhile, Unicode treats Telugu and Kannada scripts, which are functionally the exact same, and perhaps even more similar in shape, as separate.
 
Same goes also for Insular, which Unicode likewise doesn't treat separately (but only encodes some specific letters).

my hadwriting somehow looks like that Insular font
 
Antiqua looks better, Fraktur looks like Armenian barcodes

Yeah, I write the ds like it's done in insular too
 
again Insular or more precisely Gaelic type (cló Gaelach) has different orthography rules from Irish written in cló Rómhánach, namely that the lenited letters cannot be written as digraphs with h but must be written with dot above (so cló Gaelaċ and Cló Roṁánaċ)
