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.

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.

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.

This extension operates, but part of the interface of it is impossible to observe. Additionally, some of what it corrects is correct, because the dictionary of it is inadequate.

For me the best extension there is. I also use it on iPhone, in browsers and other applications. Super recommended.
