    Autocorrect begs to differ, usually only when the word is out of my field of vision.

    I took typing, on typewriters, but got efficient years later on IRC and ICQ. 60+more wpm. I’m still fairly proficient on a familiar KB too.

      any good IRC servers left or did it all move to discord? Ive been meaning to get on an IRC server thats not just a mirror of the in-game chat of the game I play.

        Gen Z here, most of my online life is on IRC. Learned about its existence a couple years ago. It is very much alive, although most people left there are at least semi-technical, and I miss the non-technical crowd.

        I don’t know, it was a very long time ago. Maybe do a search, based on your interests?

        Slashnet still exists and it’s fairly active depending on the channel. #xkcd was bumping last time I checked my client.
