LIKE_THIS ? And do i come of as some kinda culty weirdo ? I thought that looked formal and trademarky ? Am i a zoomer aldready out of touch and becoming cringe ? Should i change my accs to small letters but i’ll lose my block history whuch is almost 1000 /c/ any way to back that up ?

Edit : also to get ahead on that matter yes i may or may not have had FULL_CAPS alts and may have felt like a troll but no chained accs like that has ever been created by me . (By chained i meant same name on different instance i pulled the term out of my ass just now enjoy 😂)

Make me slightly uncomfortable. What do you want all that attention for? Why are you screaming your own name? Are you having an identity crisis?

Business systems from the 80s used to automatically convert everything name related to caps. It made it easier to do string matching which was generally case sensitive in the DB. It also made data entry easier as you just turn capslock on and type.

No so much formal as lazy semi-formal.

My CPA writes all his emails in all caps. Kind of annoying really.

Just remember ALL CAPS when you spell the man name

It is unusual and comes off similar to the way yelling your name in casual conversation would.

What to do about it is up to you.

If professional trademark is what you’re going for, I’m thinking you’re on the wrong site. LinkedIn might be more your style.
