I disable it. Also spell checking and grammar checking and all that shit. Drives me mad.

I like spell check in theory. I disable autocorrect bevause it's fucking stupid. But I like having the option to mistype something and fix it with one click.

My mother and I communicate in autocarrot. We both have atrocious, worse than MD handwriting (we both worked for years in the "helping MDs not destroy the world" industry cause their handwriting is better than ours. Reading theirs is a game. Reading ours is a nightmare. I once had a classmate in college ask to borrow my notes. She asked why I wrote them in code. I didn't) and being able to understand each other over text ruins the fun

Hey, only two tangents. I'm getting better!

My partner disables autocorrect too, so reading those messages is a bit like a Rorschach test.

I legit need this question answered, what if she isnt fat but she is thick? Like how the hell do i communicate that to someone without making them mad as hell. As someone(which seems to be a pretty large part of people) i love it when someone isnt completely thin and everything but its really hard for me to communicate that in a loving way, yeah i can say big ass and tits or whatever but that isnt everything. Blessing if anyone has experience with this lol.

You put a "fuck yeah you're sexy mmmmm" intonation in your voice and kiss them when you answer. The one time my wife asked, I told her "maybe I'm biased but I fucking love the way you llook". They aren't asking whether they are fat, they are asking whether you find them attractive. Erase that insecurity

I don't have an answer but I wish you luck walking that tightrope.

These heifers got nothin' on me.

HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 21d

No is the wrong answer anyways.

Hell yeah baby now show me some cheek is the right answer with a little gropey (if you're relationship is at that point)

The extra 'o' reads as sarcastic, doomed either way

Proofread? It's not that hard.

The hands sometimes act faster than the brain can control them.

I've had it autocorrect words that were both spelled correctly and used in a grammatically correct way. Fuck autocorrect.

Sometimes it’s the last (or only) word sent so I just, type and hit enter and as I hit enter I see it swapping it to something wrong and there’s nothing I can do about it.

Zorque@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 22d (1 reply)

It's usually the opposite problem for me, I expect the autocorrect to add punctuation or correct the last word in a comment and it doesn't because it only works after a spafe

If that was not intentional it's funny as hell

Proprietary_Blend@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 22d

Yeah. Sorry.

Kolanaki@pawb.social · 4 pts · 22d

I got a keyboard that actually fully turns autocorrect off because the default Gboard would turn it back on randomly and also choose to autocorrect words only after hitting the send button so proofreading didn't help.
