heuiop··on English, Swedish, German and Finnish Decline “Dog” (2013)
I think this may be misleading, because if there are clear rules, and all words follow them, then a lot of things become easier. English has of/for/with etc in the place of these.

Here's Armenian (western).

Singular: (շուն: shoun)

շուն շունս շունդ շունը շունի շունիս շունիդ շունին շունԷ շունԷս շունԷդ շունԷն շունով շունովս շունովդ շունովը

Plural: (շուներ: shouner)

շուներ շուներս շուներդ շուները շուներու շուներուս շուներուդ շուներուն շուներԷ շուներԷս շուներԷդ շուներԷն շուներով շուներովս շուներովդ շուներովը

heuiop··on How to Delete Facebook and Instagram from Your Life Forever
The worst part of WhatsApp is that it seems to be designed to maximize contact. People will add you to groups, and you can't do anything about it. Suddenly your number is distributed with many others, who may have who knows what data collection apps on their phones...

And once in, you will be forced to either leave and offend people, or stay and bear the consequences.

I wish I could remove it, but as you say, everyone depends on it.

heuiop··on Top Programming Languages: Python extends its lead, Assembly enters the Top Ten
HTML is included, yet it is less "popular" than Assembly? First I hear of "Processing" and it is more popular than SQL?
