!= isn't universal, i've mostly seen it used in programming.

Otherwise ≠ is the symbol we use in maths and generally the more common one.

=/= is just the worst rendition of ≠ for people that don't know how to write it or are too lazy to go find it.

Yeah =/= is honestly a little confusing. I know != isn't universal though, gotta start making sure to use instead

You're definite not wrong, I actually went to use "!=" first. But then thought if someone wasn't familiar with programming they might not get it, so I went with the "=/=" hoping it would make sense to more people. Forgot that we're on lemmy and the audience here would generally understand lol. Didn't know ≠ existed though, will probably use that from now on. Nice!
