Took a hiatus from lemmy to hang around Bluesky. When I left here I was typing errors into every post. Some were typical, like not making a noun plural, some were scary, like using the completely wrong word. Think: “bat” when I meant “car”. Some were worse but I can’t remember any.
Having mental problems over the past couple of years and noticing this scared the crap out of me, especially as it seemed to get progressively worse. When I went to BS (heh), the problems all but disappeared. Came back here, problems followed.
Is my brain perhaps struggling with the font? Another interesting note: old.lemmy.world is far worse for me than the newer version. Can I permanently change the font for an entire site? I’m sure it’s doable, but I could use best-practice advice.
(Not seeing errors on this post, but if there are any I’m leaving them.)
Hah! I look for that exact sort of mistake! Read a mystery novel as a kid where Sherlock (or whoever) figured something bout because B and N are next to each other on a typewriter.
No, I’m afraid it’s worse. I’ll have the noun in my head and write something totally unrelated. It must be something with the font fucking with me. Somehow? I hate speculating without the slightest guess as to mechanism, but suddenly I’m fine on “new” lemmy, but I’m back to screwing up on old.lemmy.
