Ah, the "language evolves" defence. How come everytime it evolves it's in the less useful direction?

No. Acronyms are words, it's in the "nym" part. Initialisms where you pronounce each letter individually are not acronyms, since they ain't words.

ATM ain't an acronym. Neither is SMH.

In my head "solar system" is specifically our star system. "Solar" as in "system of sol". But I guess it's a generic term. I don't like it.

Haha, that's ok. I had the same thing with my claim about pw manager in Librewolf.

I know. Been a bit paralysed by the amount to choose from, tho.

Librewolf has tab containers as well. So does Firefox. Unless Waterfox works differently somehow?
