  @clacke @gemlog out of curiosity and ignorance: the “alienate / inaccessible” difference means that most Taiwanese and Hongkongers can also read simplified characters?

  > Why does it look like there are two Chinese versions
  @gemlog It's exactly what you'd expect: The same Chinese, just written with traditional characters or simplified characters.
  They don't want to alienate Taiwanese and Hongkongers, but they also don't want to be inaccessible to Mainlanders and Singaporeans.
