Sometimes I forget they even allow this. Finish the fucking thing before adding extra shit. How can an unfinished thing even have extra shit?

It's like buying a tiara for your fetus, before you even buy a crib.
ALSO, MICROTRANSACTIONS = DLC.
Fuck off, no you weren't.
People who want to engage in discussion don't find a flimsy, meaningless excuse to hurl insults instead. Be less transparent before you try to troll, please.
You are right that I was unnecessarily rude. I apologize.
But I honestly do want to know why you just ignore the red misspelling squiggle, when you misspell a word. I guess I have mild OCD or something, because I simply CANNOT ignore that shit. It's an absolutely foreign concept, for someone to just be like "nah, I'm right about that word. I know better than the actual dictionary."
Again: I'm really, truly not trying to be rude anymore. I'm genuinely trying to understand your behavior.
I'm not them, for the record. But personally, I turned browser spellcheck off years ago; I have a lot of fantasy/scifi hobbies, and it often highlighted words that are correct but not in a dictionary, which was annoying, so I just shut it off. And also because it doesn't really matter, from a linguistic point of view; the purpose of language is to be understood, so as long as a typo doesn't detract from my meaning, I don't care. It'd be different if I was writing a business email, but I'm not, I'm shitposting on reddit, so who gives a fuck?
That's a terrible excuse not to talk to someone, I don't think I'd be talking to most people for more than a few messages if I did that. Also not everyone has spell check in their Lemmy Interface so there might not have been a red squiggle or maybe the user assumed that because it's a very uncommon word it might not be in the dictionary.
I don't see how that can be true, unless someone is using some sort of text-only, Unix-style browser. All modern browsers will load the rich-text-enabled text entry box, unless you go far out of your way to defeat that feature. I tested the word in the text entry box, and it came up as misspelled. You shouldn't go to great lengths to disable a spellcheck feature, unless you have ABSOLUTELY PERFECT SPELLING.
If you do, and then you misspell some shit, that is the perfect definition of living in a glass house and chucking rocks. You deserve what's coming to you, if you do it.
Firefox on windows doesn't have spellcheck for me (Linux had it by default) and even if it did the interface has to specify that it want's to use it. The phone app I use also doesn't use a spellchecker.
