If you mean that most people write even worse now than 25 years ago then yes 😄

    I'd say the opposite, at least online. More people can type now than there were 25 years ago, and autocorrect on phones is mostly good nowadays.

    25 years ago the people that were online were sitting behind a PC, not swiping on their phone and hoping the autocorrect got it right. So every typing mistake was an actual typing mistake on a real keyboard by an actual person. The use of language online has definitely gone downhill when phones entered the picture.
