this isn't a matter of interpretation. the "read receipt" says, in past tense, "read _____". so it's "red receipts"

on the other hand it's made by tech nerdos and all data actions are "reads" and "writes" so it's a log of a read and not a log of the human action

imo the whole mess is a conflation of domain-specific language and it should be an "opened" receipt

i have never once seen these two words together and this controversy has passed me by. is this specific to a singular platform/app experience that I don't use? like android sms or outlook or some shit?
