Sorry about all the typo corrections I have to make.

Typos?
A typo prone friend asked if his jokes were any god so I printed them and put 1 on each of 14 fresh graves. No resurrections yet. -

Autocorrect for Real
Why does autocorrect "fix" everything except my real typos? -
“His dad always made lintel soup for him when he had a cold”
A nice bowl of lintel soup sounds very bracing. What a supportive thing to do!

How many #typos you write that aren't undetected every day?
Since 11 years (yeah) I am working on a database of typos with autofix.
Before it was a python script only for linux since 4 years it is a https://espanso.org/ package for #Italian, #English, #French and #Spanish.
I updated this database manually, so it is human reviewed.
Usually every 6 months I do a new package release but you can always use the dev release: https://github.com/Mte90/espanso-typofixer

So @n1vux , way back when I worked for a printing company, the art director changed the lyrics of "As Time Goes By," just for me...
🎵 "You must remember this
A typo is amiss
An X is not a Y
The typographic rules apply
As type goes by..."🎶 -
Are there simply more typos on the internet today or am I simply noticing them more often?
I feel like whenever I’m on Reddit or Instagram all I see are typos. I can’t imagine looking at my post once over before sending it to see if I’m using something wrong. Like the completely wrong word is used or words are missing type of typos.
Idk am I alone here? Am I just becoming a millennial boomer? #typos #internet #old?

🚨 BREAKING: #Grammarly, the digital red pen, is apparently moonlighting as the identity thief none of us wanted. 😱 Yet, we're still surprised when the service that reads our every typo steals more than just our misplaced commas. 😂 #WhoKnew

Not in a poorly edited book this time:
This morning I read a letter in which someone typed "absorbitant" instead of "exorbitant" and I will definitely be adding that one to my vocabulary.

@ChrisMayLA6 I always hesitate to call out a typo. You never know how people will react. I spotted yours earlier.
Now I know you don't mind I'll dive in if I spot one again. I hope others will do the same for me. 😁 -
This morning my friendly typo spotters have been hard at work - I've been particularly typo-ridden today.
So I want to thank you all, as always for your vigilance & willingness to type up a typo post/reply... which I really appreciated.
And I want to thank Mastodon for the edit function, which makes those typo-spots actionable - the edit-post function is a blessing.

Woman's silly typo in a philosophical post is bringing thousands of people unexpected, pure joy

Is it just me and my neurodiverse brain, or does everyone notice minutiae like this – and then feel compelled to blog about it?
👉https://philosophics.blog/2026/01/26/enough-anough-and-the-archaeology-of-small-mistakes/?utm_source=masto&utm_medium=social
What sorcery is this? 🪄 I often catch myself typing 'anough' for 'enough'. It's also closer to how I pronounce it. I may adopt this spelling out of spite. Does this happen in other languages?

In today's episode of "Tech Buzzword Bingo," 🧐🎉 we present a model that boasts an unnecessary 1.5 billion parameters to predict humanity's next groundbreaking typo! 🤖💥 Forget Skynet, the real threat is an #autocomplete that knows our gibberish better than we do. 😂🙈

Note to those who encounter my posts on the Fediverse:
If you see the word, "if" and you think it should be, "of," instead, you are most likely correct.
Failure to adequately proofread B4 hitting send, and a touchy keypad on my tablet are my only defenses.
I hope you will forgive me in 2026 for my transgressions of 2025.
Happy new year.

Replying to someone to check if a term in their message was just a typo, and spelling the word typo as "type", then correcting that typo to "typ0", and so on. 🤦♂️
Anyway, how's your day going?
