@feld @JordiGH am aware of the regionalisms of that slang also!

And that our non-English-native developer was somewhat duped into using it as a neophyte dev working on what was then a niche passion project. And that it's being changed in the software.

Not sure I'd extend the same grace to a VC-backed Dorsey project where everyone involved is likely fluent in North American English dialects, even if "skeet" in the AAVE sense isn't something white dudebros would immediately think of.
