do you bother adding apostrophe to your words when online?

I'm on my phone, so my autocorrect does it for me most of the time. Although, when I spell "dont" it's used to me spelling the word without the apostrophe, so it leaves it as is.
 
I usually do unless I'm going for a more jokey/light hearted sort of post and want to make it more obvious, since it's important to me to use proper spelling/grammar whenever I can.
 
On Discord and messengers no. I don't bother with grammar at all in those instances.

On forums I write in full English.
 
I care a bit too much about how I type. I will use apostrophes and capitalize words. However, I haven't been listening to what my teachers said about never starting a sentence with "And", so not everything is perfect.
 
Yes, I aways do. But english is not my first language, so I'm not always sure where to add them and when. But I try my best to make it as readable as possible.
 
If I'm on my phone, then it'll autocorrect for me LMAO
if I'm on the PC, I guess it depends whether or not I'm lazy
 
sometimes.. I guess it just depends on my mood. If I notice that I've only used apostrophes for half of the message, then I might change that to be either all or none. I'm more likely to use apostrophes if I'm typing on a keyboard bc it feels natural
 
Yeah, I just type properly even if I write like I speak. I just prefer looking at those sentences, otherwise my eyes will be drawn to the error(s).
 
I always put an apostrophe where it needs to be and use correct grammar no matter where it is I’m typing.
 
In my day-to-day life, I generally see no reason to abandon proper grammar since I'm practically always typing on a computer. In the situations where I have to use a cell phone and am typing something, I sometimes just shorthand everything and forsake punctuation because I find typing on them to be annoying.
 
I try to put my apostrophe if I remember and check my post twice to see if I put it in and using correct English. I look at my post afterwards and think it doesn’t sound right so either fix or let it be and be an idiot.
 
I'll usually include it unless typing on mobile! I'm super slow at typing things on a phone :eek:
 
I do. I try to use proper grammar and all that whenever I can.
Unless it's for a meme or something.
 
I generally always do, yes. However, if I'm in a hurry and trying to text/type something quick then there's times that I haven't. Usually I count on autocorrect in that moment but that's faulty since autocorrect only likes to kick on when you don't want it vs when you do.
 
I tend to do it quite a bit. I always feel more sophisticated if I add more apostrophes to my words when they're needed, lololol.​
