honestly not necessarily, i’ve converted my currency to dollars when talking about prices before because i know there’s just a lot of Americans online and everyone else has already adapted to understanding how much a dollar is in their currency anyway
I convert Australian dollars to USD when talking about prices before because i know there’s just a lot of Americans online and everyone else has already adapted to understanding how much a dollar is in their currency anyway
Why though? Making everything US-centric helps no one. Have you started talking about one-sixteenth of an inch and tipping people?
Yes we have a dollar and it can be confused with other dollars around the world. Putting in AUD clears up any confusion there and people can do their own conversion and learn something about another country.
I mean the dollars means it’s not Europe

You know, the US is not the only country to use a ‘dollar’ as the term for its currency.
I had once been flamed by people who didn’t know that
yes but when someone says “dollar” on the Internet the chances are they mean USD
$20 says otherwise
Aww Canadian money, this is worthless.
It isn’t worthless, it is washable!

Huh? No we haven’t? Just put AUD next to the dollar amount.

I don’t think that’s true.
I can think of anything in Europe, but it could technically be the Phillipines too if we are just going off the $ symbol.
Who said that’s a dollar sign?
