yeah a diacritic on the c, t or s to indicate the sound change would be much better, like this:
this, share, chef ṱis, šare, ĉef

On the contrary, I think the standard way that just about everybody who can read English would be best.

yeah, which is why I don’t write my comments like that, I was just saying if you had to change it, that’d be better.

We have a diacritic in English text already. Rather than above or below, it goes to the right of the letter it modifies and looks an awful lot like a letter h.
And if you don't quite buy that, remember that a lot of diacritics started life as letters that were eventually moved above a preceding letter and then simplified. The tilde on ñ was an n itself; the ring on å was another a; and in at least some cases the umlaut was an e.
Modifying-h may be only stuck where it is because technology did away with the need for economical scribes before they had a chance to start messing with it.

The best option would just be to use the language that everyone knows rather than a made-up language that only you know. Writing like that is just going to result in everyone ignoring you.

“Stop doing X”
“Why?”
“Because I don’t want to do X.”
