I've heard some schools are reintroducing it now, but that doesn't help those that never learned. - eviltoast

    I was taught how to do joined up writing I. Primary school (no idea if that’s cursive though) as soon as I was told in secondary school that I didn’t have to write joined up, I stopped. I’ve always struggled reading cursive, if I play a game and it has it for journals then I can’t read it at all. Especially when it’s older style cursive like from the 1800s or early 1900s.

      I greatly appreciate all the games that have the feature to see the text of these types of things in a standard font. I appreciate the design/immersion of using cursive or handwritten text, too, but allowing me to consume it in a much more legible format is a very welcome feature.

      That’s so weird. All through middle school we were expected to write in cursive so that’s all I write in.
