I’ve already moved on. Couldn’t care less about Reddit any more.
This.
But not much has changed, functionally, for me: I still get downvoted when I point out where people can improve their English and surpass my nephew when he was in the third grade. And I still get to debate technical things based on what I know, so that’s really no change. Different pile, is all.
i downvote because 99% af the time people already know how to write, they just don’t want to bother fixing that single error or just wanted to make a quick comment, also it is boring

Not here to fight you, but this line of thinking might be why people downvote you for being a language/grammar nazi.

I* of*
Can I has downvote please?
i didn’t improve my english with your corrections, it was just annoying
Correcting someone’s English also almost never adds anything to the conversation at hand, which is the literal purpose of the downvote.
no. it’s a disagree button!
