Was that anon asking how you use uppercase letters when writing fics? If so that confuses me because I feel like writing in all lowercase would be harder??
Autocorrect is everywhere, and even devices without autocorrect, all those grammar correction options always have improper spelling (lowercase where it shouldn't be lowercase included) with red or blue underlines and I just feel like that would drive me crazy? Not to mention, I'm dyslexic and I've been reading with uppercase inclusion my entire life, so without it I always misread a lot of things because even with proper punctuation, I'll miss the start of a sentence, or I won't notice when a character's name is being mentioned.
I don't get full lowercase fics or writing.... it feels like a fad that everyone decided to jump on because a few big writers tried it out. A lot of people seems to like it so there's not much I can do or say about it, obviously demanding they stop is as delusional as the whiny minors telling people not to write dc.... but I'm not scared to at least say I don't like it, I just tolerate it because I don't want to give up fanfiction.
I don't think they were talking about that, at least I took it as them asking whY i tYPe lIKE ThiS SOMETiMES; but if they mean it like how you're saying? gonna be real honest with you chief, I didn't spend years learning how to write properly in English to then throw any and all proper punctuation out the window.
and i also just think it's ugly KJHgcdystgfydtg sorry to those who like the tiny letter no punctuation fics but I think they read horrendously
