Noone would have written like that. That is a printing typeface. Handwritten fraktur is very different. Anyway the writing in OPs picture is medieval, while the printing typeface is obviously early modern, 17th-19th cenutry.
I know, but it’s hard to find a good example with exactly that text. And I have no clue where I’ve hidden my calligraphy stuff. At least it doesn’t contain a lowercase s, so it should be somewhat fine.

What’d you need “calligraphy stuff” for?
I really haven’t written jack shit in years except on digital so excuse the shittiness but I think that shittiness makes it a rather good example of casual writing.
Now what exactly does this prove? That a non historic writing utensil in a completely different typeface doesn’t look at all like Fraktur? I mean, yes, you’re right.

…still not super easy tho lol
That’s not really how people wrote, that’s still made to confuse the reader.

I just recently learned that this is the historical reason why eyes have dots.
