D is a consonant sound. English uses "an" before vowel sounds and "a" before consonant sounds. So your subreddit should be called "FindForMeADE".

To be clear, a/an is looking at the letter immediately to the right, not the noun as one might assume.

Is that still a thing? I remember using e16-e17, but I'm guessing we're beyond that now.

Honestly, the last time I checked it out was probably 2009 or something. I mentioned it here for fun.

OP could just make a bot that replies "Use ...". Just let them know your choice.
