DESCRIPTION:The Mongolian script is mainly used for Mongolian. The script i
 s in daily use in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region of the People's Rep
 ublic of China. The script mainly used in Mongolia is the Cyrillic script\
 , but the Mongolian script is being reintroduced in Mongolia.\n\nThe Mongo
 lian script should be displayed vertically\, but vertical writing for the 
 script is not well supported in most software. In particular\, most global
  social media do not support vertical writing for the script. Therefore\, 
 Mongolian script users write sideways and post images containing Mongolian
  script text.\n\nTherefore\, I proposed and implemented partial support fo
 r the Mongolian script on Mastodon. I made it possible to display Mongolia
 n script text vertically without changing the UI layout. This approach att
 racted attention and influenced other fediverse software. New users joined
  Mastodon because Mastodon supports vertical writing for the Mongolian scr
 ipt.\n\nThis talk is about the Mongolian script\, issues that occurred in 
 this approach\, and the influence of this approach. This approach for inte
 rnationalization demonstrates advantages of the Fediverse over proprietary
  global social media.
