It takes so much work to successfully pull off sarcasm in text. I’m still working on it, it’s a craft I hope to master some day. But the fun in it is the ambiguity, so adding a /s takes all the fun out of it. But ideally only a select few get whooshed.
Honestly it has seemed like a fool's errand to me, especially because sometimes I get wooshed, but best of luck.
