No em dashes anymore
Unproofread notes
I am not using em
dashes anymore as more and more people are seeing content with em
dashes as AI generated, even if it's not. And that's not good for your reputation in the long run. So now, I've started using en
dashes everywhere when writing:
- Em dash example: He knew what he had to do—leave.
- En dash example: He knew what he had to do – leave.
On a macOS device, pressing option + minus
writes an en
dash (for an em
dash, you needed to press option + shift + minus
keys).
