Seriously why I turn off autocorrect. 80% of the time, the autocorrection is worse than submitting a damn normal typo. It's bad enough when it's only trying to correct spelling. All the autopunctuation and junk is just pure suffering... I hate a one-character typo turning in to erasing a whole-ass wrong word with extra capitalization that's not even supposed to be there just because I hit spacebar before noticing.

If you proofread before hitting send or submit then autocorrect learns from that.

Not if I turn it off because I don't want my phone analyzing everything I do. I don't need a spy in my pocket. Especially true for voice assistants.

I type better than the fucking autocorrect corrects anyways, so I'll take typos that are easy to spot over "corrected" words that are grammatically wrong and harder to spot every time.
