Outside of Toki Pona

Conlang Critic

Conlang Critic is a series of reviews of constructed languages that used to be the focus of jan Misali's YouTube channel.[8]

In 2017, he endorsed Toki Pona, citing its accessible pronunciation and grammar, and the logic of creating simple noun phrases.[9] Misali reviewed Toki Pona as if it were an international auxiliary language to highlight its comparative simplicity. Their only point of criticism was the lacking number system. Throughout Conlang Critic, Toki Pona maintained its rank as the best "interlang" until the ranking system was abandoned.

Seximal

jan Misali endorses a base-6 numeral system, specifically by the term seximal. Beyond making videos on the subject, he is the author of the website seximal.net. The overlap between his audience and the Toki Pona community may have inspired seximal Toki Pona number systems.
