    Out of curiosity, why go out of your way to not capitalize correctly? Like ‘I’ has to be easiest in any autocorrect.

      i don’t have autocorrect on, i also don’t subscribe to the idea that there is a “correct” way to speak or write, languages are tools used for communication, if you can understand me without effort then i used the tool successfully

      i do capitalise things when it matters, for various reasons; to make a sentence easier to read, to show respect, to avoid a word being confused for a typo. but overall i just like the look of small letters better

        Very peculiar perspective denying the already established language standards of punctuation and capitalization… Autocorrect exists to show you the “corect” way.

        For anyone raised in a standard education system, there is effort to read comments like that. We’ve learned to pause, exclaim, incur emotion, and apply tension, all through punctuation and capitalization. Your comments are read as breathless long-winded statements for those of us who still subscribe to language standards…

        Thanks for the response, though.

          that’s how my thoughts sound, that’s how i like my writing to look, i don’t care if not everyone likes that, you’re allowed to not like things

            Yep never said otherwise… lol and you did say you cared in your first reply but I can see you don’t follow logic too well so I’ll leave it at that.

              💀 i care to be understood, and since we’re talking that’s clearly not an issue. i do not care if you like how i type. you can dislike things for no reason it’s fine, it’s not criminal to simply not like something, like how i dislike how you’re being rude to me right now

              why are you insulting me over your dislike of how i choose to write words and form sentences? how is my logic at fault when i don’t capitalise “i” or use a comma instead of a full stop? i don’t lack the ability to write “properly”, this is a style i chose because i like it, because it’s the closest to how my thoughts flow and to me it’s aesthetically pleasing

                It’s simple. You said as long as there isn’t effort for the reader, you dont mind. So you care.

                Then you said you don’t care about the reader.

                Make up your mind? That’s where your logic fails. But it’s typical in online forums like this. People spend all day here.

                Again, I never said you couldn’t type that way. I’m not sure why you keep responding as if I did.

                  it’s literally a skill issue if lack of capitalisation and imperfect punctuation is something that noticeably slows down the speed at which you process information

                  but i don’t, so your insults are quite frankly only indicative of your personality i’m afraid. jeez, get your head out of your ass
