There's actually a revival movement of Javanese script it's used as a second-script in most famous places in Yogyakarta, Central and East Java but yeah the use of it still limited since it's hard to write and it's not been taught in school widely

The revival movement also happened within Sundanese community in Bogor and Bandung city where moden-Sundanese script were used in tourism area

The Javanese script is super cool-looking. So sad it was phased out

On the other hand there is no such thing as a native Muğla resident. They are all either russian or british tourists

I mean the Maldives is a beautiful country, but nowadays, things are mostly carried by aesthetics, and that’s kind of bad
