@kitten@social.elizabeth.cat I'm bored and german... so here's an unsolicited tip for umlaute, if your keyboard doesn't have 'em and/or you're not native. The important thing to remember is that they're double vowels, the 2 dots just replace an e that would come after in the same way the tilde above the ñ replaces an "n": ä -> ae ö -> oe ü -> ue Have fun writing german words correctly even without the newer umlaut letters. (new as in created in the 90's to standardize the language) I too use this, because all my keyboards are US QWERTY.

    @siblingsofthevoid@void.lgbt oh I do have them! I memorized the Alt-combination already (and the ü character even exists in Spanish too) I just skipped it in this case to make the joke, as a "pun" (bad vs gut) ​:blobcatgiggle:​
