I just skimmed my past comments and I noticed I typo a lot. Like probably at least 1 typo every few comments.

Then again I use my phone often so its hard to type, since I do not use autocorrect (don't trust autocorrect)

    About twice a comment on my phone and about once every 5 comments on the computer.

    I have an iPhone — does that count? The keyboard is way worse on my 16 Pro Max (2024) than the one on my Galaxy S10 (2019).

    I hate iPhone keyboards so much. It's like they actually hate me. It's almost enough to make me use voice to text for everything. But I can't make my brain and mouth work at the same time.

    My boomer mom and all her friends have iPhones. They all typo. They all complain about the keyboard. She's given up now, since she's sundowning hard and life for her is just too short. She vomits some letter chowder and we eventually figure it out.

    Wasnt apple supposed to be a pro-people best-UX utopia?

    (Also, S10 gang represent)

    I find myself often going back and ninja editing a post I just made. Even though I read over it before I submitted. Used to not be this bad; my thoughts and grammar, even in a gaming chat, were coherent. Oh well.

    FYI: On newer versions of Lemmy's front end, it doesn't show edits made withint 5 minutes anymore, but if you view it from, say, Piefed, it still shows (pretty sure).

    I have nerve damage in my hands so typos are a huge part of typing on a phone for me. I've gotten in the habit of going back and rereading a time or two before hitting post because there will always be a few words that are unrecognizable.

    (For instance, before I went back just now, "hitting" was "hjrrjbd")

    It's all typos all the way down. I was actually trying to type a totally different comment.

    Probably quite often on mobile, however I type very quickly and no autocorrect (same as you) so I get quite quick at deleting what I've typed and trying again lol.

    On a keyboard, almost never. From my phone, nearly every other comment. I have a lot of edits lol.

    Apparently every tyime I start typing a response to this question.

    Every single time I type something. That doesn't mean I don't see them before posting.

    In probably 100% of things longer than a single sentence—if written on my phone. I have fat thumbs, what can I say?

    All the time. Its really embarrassing tbh. Got worse when I accidentally turned off autocorrect for a month.

    How it feels coming into this post with the same joke as everyone else:

    I'm on a desktop PC. I have LanguageTool installed, and it flags both spelling and grammar mistakes as I type. Also, I write fiction as a hobby and have plenty of practice typing, so I hope that I don't post too many mistakes.

    I don't often notice my typos,

    But when do, it's after a day and a ton of interaction with said comment.

    With t9? Never. I even typed in full sentences with proper punctuation and grammar!

    With a slid-out half-keyboard? Never.

    With a full QWERTY (HTC Dream was amazing): Never.

    With a giant sweet on-screen keyboard? Every other word. Sometimes like five in a row. Autocorrect catches almost all of them, but it’ll rarely bug out and not work, and I’ll take that as a challenge to finish my paragraph even if copying/restarting the program would fix it… and I do very poorly.
