TheOct039246yI would hate that. Just point mistakes and let me choose whether or not to correct them, but please don't change my text without my consent! I already hate smartphones for that

IIRC, LibreOffice has this functionality. It shows you a popup or something with a word that starts with the letters you are typing, then you press enter key and it will complete that word.

There's already plenty of that autocorrect shit out there.. sometimes useful, often annoying as fuck :/ email clients should really not get it. Especially since basic proofreading before sending your message can go a long way. -
xnor15266y@TheOct0 yes like that!
@Condor I'm not talking about autocorrect. I'm talking about autocomplete like "IntelliSense". Just a quick way to write things.
@cafecortado will check that out! -
Condor323326y@Raamakrishnan gibe de Big Data plz for natural language processing Blockchain AI (:
Honestly though, autocomplete on desktop.. on mobile I can understand it since typing on glass is shit.. but when you've got a full keyboard at your disposal? Eh, not worth the extra data provision IMO. -
Condor323326yI don't use autocomplete in my editor either 🙂 I'm using vim here. Syntax highlighting and automatic indenting is all I need.
As for the random buzzwords, my apologies for the brainfart 😅
