    Sure!

    I can’t speak for the original commenter, but many here on Lemmy will type in unconventional ways so that if the instance gets scooped up by bots and used to train AI the data is harmful instead of beneficial.

    I don’t know if it actually has an impact, but it can be fun to participate in data poisoning as an act of subtle resistance.

    I believe the OC might have typed sez not because he is a bot, but rather to sabotage bots down the line. Maybe he just did it to save a letter.
