The nightmare just crawls out to our reality when paid software is less developed on and more buggy than free Open Source software.
That’s because the people making it are doing it for a job rather than for the love of it. (Except me. Surely I don’t do that.)
Did you know that "payed" is a naval term. See Grammarly on Payed for more information
Haha whoops. Thanks
The funny thing is that since it's an actual word the spell checker might not be of any use to see that it might not be the word you're actually wanting to use. And with the amount of people using "payed" instead of "paid" the dictionaries will probably include "payed" as an alternative way to conjugate "to pay" in the currency sense.
Uh. The spell checker doesnt work on my phone either way. I got lazy to fix anything on my GrapheneOS
