alt Hacker NewsWhy do people still use this horrible-looking and hard to process alphabet? Why not switching to latin (as some countries did) or at least to reform it so that it's easier to type and to read?

Why should all writing be forced into 1 way of doing things? That just sounds disrespectful of other peoples' culture.

What’s the point of insulting a script as “horrible looking”. What a silly comment, please grow up.

Because pretty much no language besides Latin actually maps nicely to the Latin script. Pretty much all languages use digraphs, diacritic symbols or completely new letters in the Latin script (even English, œ and æ, for some time at least).
