    != isn’t universal, i’ve mostly seen it used in programming.

    Otherwise ≠ is the symbol we use in maths and generally the more common one.

    =/= is just the worst rendition of ≠ for people that don’t know how to write it or are too lazy to go find it.

      Yeah =/= is honestly a little confusing. I know != isn’t universal though, gotta start making sure to use instead
