    Took me way too long to realize we weren’t talking about SanFran or Salesforce.

      I thought Sci-Fi would be the preferred short form of Science Fiction, to be honest.

        Nonono that has literally 3 times the number of characters as “SF” and on Mastodon there’s a strict character limit so they just had to shorten it so they could communicate all the information in the clearest possible way within those limitations.

          Drop the double quotes and the 2 carriage returns and you can fit the same message now with “Sci-Fi” in the same character count.
