Extension freezes the system, the changes made are not saved. On time there was a Java error (LT version 5.1.3). Reason to remove the extension again.
Besides the crashes the extension did the job for the Dutch language spelling an grammar as expected.
Running Linux Mint 20 and LO Version: 6.4.6.2 - Build ID: 1:6.4.6-0ubuntu0.20.04.1

Pisząc wierszem, dodatek na końcu każdego wersu sugeruje kropkę, co jest błędem i nonsensem.

Does what it says on the tin. For some reason I could not find it with the search option on the extensions website. But the Language Tool website has a link.

Works as intended.

It was much harder than it should be to find out that one needs to install this extension. Downloading it was slow and installation was somewhat non-intutive. And then I find that when I finally get the thing to run - and, er, not run multiple simultaneous copies of the proofing window - it has dropped the proofing window out of HiDPI and is too small to read.
This is like the bad old days of Linux. It's disastrous. I will have to uninstall the edition to make any type of proofing within Libre Office usable.
I am on Mint Cinnamon with LibreOffice 6.4.6.2.

It seems that v5.1.3 does not work with the LibreOffice 7. It crashes the LO. :(

Keep in mind it's far from perfect though.
"Can you do plan by yourself? Yoda I speak like and check grammar I do." doesn't have any errors, according to LanguageTools.

LT isn't optimized to find errors that people artificially add to their text.

actual version 5.0.1

This one crashes my Libre Office v6.4, please help with solutions if you can.
