Comment on Here's why Inscryption is a good game
AbelianGrape@beehaw.org 5 weeks agoAmericans often incorrectly ascribe degrees to “unique.” At this point it’s so baked into all of their dialects that it’s hard for me to keep calling it wrong.

TIL.
www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/unique definition 3 includes examples like “very unique” and “fairly unique.” So it’s incorrect only if you assume that American usage is wrong and British usage is right, I guess. According to the Cambridge Dictionary I think you are right about how it’s used in British English.
