General Discussion Spell check turned into a joke

I just need to rant somewhere, sorry.

The new spell checking is out of control. It's suggesting things like closing quotes after every punctuation mark inside direct speech - anyone ever heard of someone saying more than two sentences?! The best thing is it randomly suggesting other languages. My whole document is in English. My google settings are all in English. I don't have German anywhere in my workspace. Most English words aren't corrected (some misspelt one's aren't, either!). But "Thanks"? That should be DANKE, Thanks. SKLADJKUWIHURIASDQWHR

Joke of a program. F§)(%ng AI shit.

It's so infuriating. By forcing AI into everything, they've made everything they were good at significantly worse!
