that's us inflation maybe but LJ lives in the UK and I can tell you it's a lot worse than that for us the bank of england says a certain inflation rate that isn't that high like 30% over the last year but that's a lie it feels like the cost of everything including food has at least tripled over the last year or two maybe more sync at its end was a fiver and hadn't gone up in a few years so if you triple that you get 15 which yeah is below 20 by a quarter but S4R lasted 10 years before it died only cause of reddit I don't think that's a bad price to pay for a lifetime of adless sync sync is ljs job so it's only natural the price is gonna go up with food going up this much 20 quid for 10 years or more of updates for an app I use constantly isn't a bad deal
Please please please use punctuation.
no
I think you’re using bad speech-to-text software. There are alternatives with good “AI” auto-punctuation based on your tone of speech.
no I'm writing by hand I just hate punctuation
You never read any punctuation-free text by anyone else, did you?
I have read punctuation free text and it never bothered me it's perfectly readable all of those examples you gave are intentionally ambiguous sentences if a sentence is ambiguous without punctuation it's poorly written
Well, you used “us” and “us” close to one another, and one of them referred to the United States and the other was a pronoun. It took several reads to make sure I rewrote it correctly in my other comment. I am pretty sure you're not being considerate about how “unambiguous” your sentences are without capitalisation & punctuation, and even if they were, they take significantly longer to read. As a person who became proficient in English as their second language, I am baffled by how frequently natives botch their national heritage.
