        It’s spelled the same way but not pronounced the same way. Chat - the animal - is pronounced “sha” and Chat - the dialogue - is pronounced the english way (tchat). It’s been used to refer to internet chat rooms since the 90s, the same way that a lot of english linguo is commonly used here to refer to web-related concepts

        Edit: the GPT part however, is indeed very funny

        Yeah it should be Fr🤮nce instead. (I know it as a meme from the good old r/2westerneurope4you on r🤮ddit, if anyone knows a lemmy alternative plz let me know, i miss the memes)

        Edit: My bad, r🤮ddit needed to be censored as well

          You mean r*ddit or rather r🤮ddit. We don’t talk about The Other Side in that way here.
