This video actually explains the problems pretty well and caused me to change my approach to this. But yes OP! Good points!!!

actually you know what that's exactly it i would rather someone add 5 parantheticals after every sentence than use tone indicators it's 1. accomplishing SO much more in terms of clarity 2. extremely funny to look at depending on how they're used

#yeees!!!#i still use tone indicators sometimes but I've started writing it in full #i really only using /joking and /lighthearted since even tho I know my friend's humor enough to know they're joking #I get SUPER parnoid when I do it back #plus I always just ask if I wasn't sure it was a joke or if it's irl people will tell me if I make the face™️#but yah #trying to transition more to the parathesis #I'm pretty sure I understand social cues well enough to not be autistic but I struggle more than a typical allistic #particularly witj sarcasm tho I've gotten WAY better at understanding it and I even use it myself!#so I remember beinh pretty excited when I learned about it #also fun fact! using (joke) or clarifying with parathesis can also alleviate some of the anxieties of being missunderstood of text #Youtube
