Lately autocorrect has been capitalizing everything. This means my Shitposts take on the Portentous Game Jargon appearance of old school White Wolf games.

@chimerror I’d been assuming it was because I installed the option to type in German and a lot of loan words got capitalized!

@Leucrotta it's also just because it tries to guess based on its library of what bullshit people type and there's so many reasons why you would capitalize a word and it really doesn't get when that's relevant or not

it happens to me too because I often type words with a capital letter to emphasize or imply a specific meaning and then when you go back to normal writing it's still like "this is capitalized, right"

@Leucrotta oh and vice versa

since I've basically adopted the all lower case text for casual posts like this, I have to constantly slow its roll on "omg"

@chimerror to be fair i capitalize shitposts about Norse stuff frequently enough my phone tends to offer Fenris, Thor and Jormangundr in all caps.
