tone tags/indicators are short text at the end of a message to let the reader know how the message is meant to be read, clear up any misunderstanding, or simply tell what the tone is.

the tag is separated from the message it is indicated by a slash ( / ).

tone tags are especially useful for neurodivergent folk, as they can have a harder time understanding and reading tone through text, as apposed to someone who is neurotypical and may have an easier time understanding the tone.

not all neurodivergent people have trouble reading tone, but some do which is why tone tags were created.

this being said, mocking tone tags is considered ableism, joke or not.

if you have come here to mock such, then please seek your exit.
