I Guess it should be capitalized, but still.

    Spell check also looks for capitalization in most cases. “linux” isn’t technically correct, “Linux” is.

      Also, what bugs me about this is that your text editor is not “fedora/gnome/whatever” or “FUCKING LINUX” it’s just a text editor. Often, they don’t even install with a spell check dictionary. I guess it would fall under “whatever” but, eh, not in that context.

      ETA: Just noticed they’re root. I predict their next post will be FUCKING LINUX ISN’T SECURE!!!1

        Nah come on. Fedora and Gnome have to be aware to be very big Linux related projects and of course both have a responsibility for the default applications they ship; i.e. it shouldn’t be malware and neither should it be shit. The Linux desktop community has to pick up users where there are if this all is supposed to be actually used. As is „users“.

    You have the answer to your problem in your own post. So what exactly do you expect to happen here?

    Edit: Just noticed you actually wrote it the second time in CAPS LOCK so that way it isn’t marked.

    Another clue in your own post 🤣

      It’s GNU/Linux.

      I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as GNU/Linux, is in fact GNU plus Linux.

        I logically know you meant this as in a noun that refers to a specific person, place, or thing.

        But I’m just reading as a British person excited about a noun. “Proper fucking noun, innit

    ios is underlined because it is grammar checked to iOS. I think capitalization matters to autocorrect.

    Ps. Posted on iOS not android

    Pps. Android is not spellchecked when lowercase but iOS is?? ios android

    Ppps. Why is Ps allowed but not Pps?

    Pppps. This is getting ridiculous.

    Ppppps. Haha I said pp

    Pppppps. This is the last one unless someone comments something that makes me want to edit this comment

    Ppppppps. Edit: I said comments something I’m my last ps and It should be replies. This is the final one for real

    Pppppppps. Edit 2: I said I’m instead of in. This is the final one for real for real

    Linux kernel doesn’t include a spell checking dictionary soooooo Linux doesn’t worry about whether things are words. Your particular spellchecker doesn’t seem to think linux is a word but “aspells dict on my machine doesn’t consider linux a word” sounds a lot dumber (because it is pretty dumb)

          Does KDE even have native support for touch screens? Last time I tried, when I tapped on an input field, no on-screen keyboard showed up. Worked perfectly fine on GNOME.

    “dosen’t belive”

    But lowercase “linux” marked as wrongly spelled is a problem. Priorities.
