    Solution from the old ones: We used to replace the S with a $ sign in Microsoft (or Microshaft, or “Microfos” (Microshit) if you’re Hungarian), so if you’re writing it as Micro$lop, you get a few days evasion.

    (Reason behind the abandonment of Micro$oft/Micro$haft/whatever: Windows 7, Linux and its community was much worse back then, “maybe not all companies are bad” sentiment popular in the early 10’s, people suddenly thought all the crap Micro$lop did were conspiracy theories, etc.)

      Not sure if it works on Discord but another old-school trick is Micro**slop

      italicizing nothing creates an invisible break in the word

      Here in Italy we used the winzozz calssifier. A portmanteu of “windows” and “zozzo” “sozzo” that stands for dirty, unpolished or allusive. Have fun with this lore drop
