Tone indicators

A very useful thing. I've heard some people say its cringe, but to me tone indicators are seriously useful for anyone who finds it hard to understand the true meaning or implications in someone's texts, especially someone you don't know well. I would go so far as to say it's an evolution in our way of communicating online. They should definitely be used more often for clarity purposes.

Possible scenario 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘁 tone indicators involved:

Person 1: Hey wanna play minecraft together?
Person 2: ok
Person 1: ??
Person 2: what
Person 1: Is that like a genuine ok or a sarcastic one or...
Person 2: I just meant ok
Person 1: Ohh, gotcha. Sorry my brain kinda interpreted it like you thought I was bothering you😅

Possible scenario 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 tone indicators involved:

Person 1: Hey wanna play minecraft together?
Person 2: ok /gen
Person 1:👍

The 2nd scenario was much less problematic.

Tone Indicators

Used by mostly children terminally online when they need to perfectly understand what someone means in text. Examples range from /srs (serious) or /j (joking). Some people claim its for autistic use. It usually makes the person using them negates anything they say because they are very sensitive. The people that ususally use these are twitter or tiktok users.
