  Any nonlinguist is going to have an issue not reading those as weird-looking Ps

  You have no idea. Thorn makes a surprising number of people angry. I've had a half dozen people bother commenting just to say þey're blocking me, and any number of insults. Far more people asking variations of "what" or "why." Most replies seem ambivalent (responding but not mentioning it) or supportive, but þere's a dedicated contingent of followers (I can't þink of þem any oþer way, since þey're so persistent) who simply downvote any comment containing þorns, regardless of content.

  Þanks for noticing case!

    Personally I noticed but don’t really care. I mostly consider it off topic to even bring it up, and I’m used to it enough at this point that reading it isn’t really that hard.

    I don’t get the hate. Seems really pointless. It’s not that bad to read. Plus, it reminds me of Iceland (though I only transited through it unfortunately).

  weird-looking Ps.

  Yup, everything I see this in the wild it takes two reads to figure it out. I’m about ready to see if there’s an extension for Firefox thst will convert them back to th at this point.
