I just learnt the difference, an em-dash is as long as an m and used for other things than the shorter en-dash (as long as an n).
Em-dashes are more common in literature, which a lot of AI is trained on, rather than online speak where it’s annoying and difficult to notice the difference between - and — (and not to be confused with –).
On Linux you can set a compose key, press it and then do 3 consecutive dashes (—) for an m-dash, and 2 consecutive dashes with a dot at the end (–.) for an n-dash.
Is that an em-dash?
Idk what em dash means. The AI use — this in replies often. So it would be ironic if it is in the phobia name.

I wouldn’t even know how to type them, my keyboard only has the - dash.
