The Teletype Text Element Lives On… at Least on This Site
11.10.2019
It was this: <tt>
I say "was" because it's deprecated. It may still "work" (like everybody's favorite <marquee> in some browsers), but it could stop working anytime, they say. The whole purpose of it was to display text in a monospace font, like the way Teletype machines used...

I remember when this went around in January, and I'm a little shocked it didn't happen.
Mina is the perfect person for the job (like, duh) and the result would be good for everyone. Let's make this happen. The least we can do is sign Amélie Lamont's petition.
