Of course, I use a slate and stylus, a brailler, or braille display. You do know what braille is right? It is a reading and *writing* system.

I’m wondering if you might be confused by the wording of the comment. When they say they “write “braille, they are not saying they’re using a pen and simply making ink dots on a paper. Just like we use words like watching movies, we use words like writing braille. Writing braille for us means using a metal plate that has the braille cell indented into it, and you use a little pointy metal piece to push the paper into those divots. This creates the traditionally raised braille on the paper. I hope this explains it well enough. As an aside, we can also type braille using a machine called a Brailer. It’s similar to an old fashion typewriter, but it’s designed with different buttons

I’m not sure you mentioned this directly, but I assume you are sighted? This is not related to your original question, but something I always find funny and it came up here. For people who use screenreaders, there is a description attached to each emoji that tells us what it is. The emoji you used is “loudly crying face“. I can’t tell you how many times people use emojis that they think are positive emotions for a negative remark or vice versa… I just chuckle a little inside because sighted people have to go off assumptions of what the emoji looks like, I guess?
