Man, I’m dyslexic and a writer, so I thought that autocorrect would be really useful.
So, there’s an autocorrect available on Linux, and it does work.
But it is way more of a pain in the ass than a help. With an on screen keyboard, doing swipe typing, I don’t need autocorrect because I have the qwerty layout memorized, and can just make the patterns that make the words, and screwups are rare enough I don’t care. So I keep it off.
But dealing with it on pc? I really thought it would help, but it’s in the way. It made things harder to process. I make less mistakes that need correcting just typing in my semi-huntnpeck way via keyboard than having the program interfering.
Like, I’m the perfect use case for autocorrect, and it isn’t worth a damn.
