Personally, I think the grammar bots fit right into Reddit culture.
Everyone is a smarty-pants on Reddit!
I do hope that people respect the instance hosts and go easy on the trivial bots when it comes to Lemmy though.
I didn’t mind the fact that it was there, I was always just annoyed at how useless the memory hints were. Like yeah, of course I could spell “neither” if I just remember the e comes before the i… that’s the problem.
It’s like saying “if you want to be rich just get more money” or “NASCAR is easy cuz it’s all left turns”
…or when sounded like “ay” as in “neighbor” or “weigh”.
Actually, let me double check that with my foreign buddies Keith and Heidi, they’ve got eight children who are all cops and busted a major counterfeit heist the other day. Weird, right?
I always thought it’s funny to see such a spelling bot on linguistics themed subs where everyone was like “fck you descriptivist” and they were downvoted into oblivion
