"Favs" #671

Closed gvn closed 7 years ago

gvn commented 7 years ago

This spelling seems odd to me. I feel like I've always seen "Faves" as short for favorites.

I guess there's some debate though.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I'm on Team Faves :)

Omg. I love that the linguist preferred to remain anonymous in this debate. I'm on Team Fav, though moved slightly by Zimmerman's note that "Some people prefer ‘fav’ as a noun and ‘fave’ as a verb."

Haha let the battle begin! I slightly prefer Favs but only because it's slightly shorter, so it fits better in the nav.

If Pulse is ever translated it'll get longer (or if someone increases their text size).

I'd suggest "Faves" or a ❤️ wherever space is at a premium.

Closing, as this is a religious debate that will never be solved to everyone's satisfaction.
