  It seems like the LanguageTool is hinting to us that it's okay to make mistakes. Everyone makes mistakes, it's not a shame. Everyone has the right to write as they wish. Calling people illiterate just because they write differently is discrimination.

    Well, others and I would probably have understood the parody if the rating had been realistic. After initial difficulties, the last ratings were five stars.
    The rating often decides whether a prospective customer installs a software or not.
    This is free software that is developed by many employees in their free time without pay. It is OK if problems are rated with a lower ranking. But then you should also name them clearly. Otherwise, you should also give a good ranking out of respect for the work of the developers.
    You can write whatever you want in the comment and make your jokes there. But if that leads to the software being rated worse than it is, that is not OK.
    So, either you change the rating or I will report your comment as spam.

  • Fred Kruse Sep 20, 2024, 8:24 AM (17 days ago)

    The comment and rating are completely inappropriate.
    Nobody is labeled illiterate or anything similar by the software. At no point is the impression given that it is shameful to make mistakes.
    On the contrary, everyone has the right to have their mistakes communicated to them and to learn from them. Nobody is forced to change their text. The underlines are only hints.
    A rating should be given for the functionality of the application and not because you fundamentally do not like its goals. Nobody is forced to install this extension if they do not want to be informed about errors in their texts in general.

      Well. I wanted to parody the Western agenda, but someone really thought I was one of them. Is even this level of absurdity no longer ironic?..

  Muy buena extensión, de las mejores, ayuda mucho al hacer correcciones.
  lo único que le haría falta seria un modo oscuro.

  LanguageTool 6.4 is causing me problems with MultiFormatSave extension, so I'm reverting to 6.3.1 for now.

  updating my rating opinion

  My rating is tentative, as I am currently learning / testing the extension, with LibreOffice on windows 10 pro. I am also comparing with web version, and the standalone desktop, to see what how it should work or not with same test given different contexts, so I can keep working with it.
  
  The LO extension, generated dialog windows are very small UI font size that can't be changed apparently, or it would render the rest of the OS including LO, out of its own ergonomic range (itself a pain to manage across the board of windows OS graphical objects and software type).
  
  I will revise my rating upon further information, either way. I am liking the things I see in the interfaces on the web and standalone. but I would enjoy being able to do that integrated into LO. (even if I would also like the web/standalone, UI font size to be independent between the UI and the text under review.

    It seems the integrated version in libre-office works well, as well as withing browser text boxes in MS edge.
    
    Howevere only the LO extension has a fine grain options to control. The web and standalone seem to behave identical, probably same web technology.
    
    I am now prefering the extension to the integrated, for its options, however unable to find through google and LT web site a place whether some indications of the meaning of those options might be.
    e.g. section header and choices in:
    Sentence exceeding rules: Text check move?
    Paragraph check mode?
    
    I think the inline mode contex menu font is readable. but when suing the extension dialog box, it might be java ruling the font size.

  Tiene muchos errores y limitaciones. Era un buen producto pero se ha convertido en un verdadero dolor de cabeza porque marca como error palabras bien escritas como las compuestas como "supermercado" (por "super" y "mercado").

  This has a few quirks, but it won my heart (and this review) by suggesting I use "propose" because I'd used "suggest" in the previous sentence. Very sophisticated for something that's free people. Went to MS 365 and it's bloated with false positives.
  
  This didn't work because Java wasn't installed on my computer. Go to java.com, download it, the go to Tools>Options>Advanced>[Under Java Options] Add...> C:\Program Files\Java\jre-1.8
  
  Tip: Hit F7 instead of clicking this extension's icon in the toolbar which is much more sluggish.

  • daddy blondlegs Nov 2, 2023, 2:39 AM (11 months ago)

    Correction: Go to Tools>Spelling instead of F7

    Note to devs: the Grammar Rules and Style Rules under Options is unreadably squished

  Müll! LO bleibt ständig damit hängen, Bereiche werden ständig neu geprüft, obwohl sie ignoriert wurden, zu umständlich! Nicht wirklich brauchbar!

  Using LT 5.9 on LO 7.4 under Windows 11. Works well in many respects, but it interferes with autocorrect, specifically "always correct to", which results in blank spaces. Also seems to deactivate itself when the computer comes out of sleep mode. Its spellchecker interferes with LO spellchecker and must be turned off.
