    I turn off autocorrect on anything that offers it. Mostly my android phone, but also on LibreOffice or whatever.

    I also turn off all auto-capitalize, auto-punctuation, etc. When coding, I also hate auto-indent. If I want something indented, I’ll hit tab.

    In short, when I put in text, I want my computing devices to get exactly what I explicitly input and nothing else.

    I also took out the fuse that powers the Starlink connectivity in my Subaru because Subaru’s privacy policy says they’ll record any audio in the cabin they damned well please with no notice or consent (except insofar as existing in the cabin constitutes “consent” because their legal department says so) and send those recordings back to the mothership to use in any way they see fit.

      Nice to know I’m not the only one that dislikes autocorrect on phones, and autocomplete / autoindent (and also auto close parentheses and quotes for me) when coding

      same i really dislike autocorrect, it’s annoying. also, i’m afraid of becoming reliant on it if i were to start using it.
