See, I legitimately can’t even tell if you’re trolling or not.
Comment on Am I going crazy, or has people's spelling gotten awful lately?

My mobile spelling has gotten to be garbage because my phone keyboard autocorrects Sometimes and I’ve gotten lazy about Swype/deleting mid-word mistakes. My pen/paper and also physical keyboard spelling remains persnickety

I turned off autocorrect because it was changing valid words into other words. Having an obvious typo is preferable to changing the meaning completely, which happened enough times for me to notice.

Mine autocorrects “the” to “ther” sometimes. Not even a damn word.

My phones autocorrect has been garbage recently. I feel like a few years ago, it was much better at predicting what I meant to type, and I could easily edit on mobile using the suggested corrections. But now it is worse. Even with words or names I use all the time.

Ditto. My older phone (Lineage 17) doesn’t have this problem, compared to my current (Lineage 20)

How long have you had it? it took my current keyboard 3ish months to be as good as gboard which I had been using for years.
