Review by Wortwanderer
Rated 4 out of 5
by Wortwanderer, 3 years agoEigentlich ist das Tool sehr gut, bis auf einige, kleine, doch nervige Dinge, die bereits erwähnt wurden. In deutschen Fachtexten wechselt LT laufend auf Niederländisch, egal wie man das Tool einstellt. Weiter sollte das Pop-Up Fenster nur bei Doppelklicks aufspringen. Bei Texten technischer Art, Tabellen etc. steht das Pop-Up Fenster immer über dem Text, den man bearbeiten möchte. Abschalten geht ja nur ganz, was auch keine Lösung ist.
Dazu kommte: für Privatpersonen, die gerne mehr als das Basic Tool hätten, ist der Preis zu hoch und ein Abo*, ein NoGo!
Ansonsten ein sehr gut gemachtes und sehr nützliches Addon.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18058573, 3 days agoCool, so they ruined the spellchecker by handling it off to AI first, then demanded their userbase's money to keep it running? Turning a good free tool into a bad paid one is one hell of a business venture, hope it becomes a dead one next.
Anyway, looking forward to see this service being overtaken by something it used to be - a simple and free open-source spell checking algorithm. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14715700, 3 days agoI was a paid user, but the direction of the addon towards AI instead of just keeping their main business and now making the browser addon also paid to fund their idiotic AI craze made me cancel my subscription and uninstalling the extension.

- Rated 1 out of 5by moe_182, 5 days agoFatal error making this paid only, absolutely dumb decision for what! having AI in it? Nah hard pass
- Rated 1 out of 5by KIRLANT, 5 days agoСтали требовать плату из-за того что стали использовать ИИ о котором никто нафиг не просил и стоимость неоправдано большая. Ну и досвидания тогда.

- Rated 5 out of 5by jarco, 6 days agoI self host this on my Linux laptop, the browser plugin makes it usable, and since I self host, it is private as well. Good solution that actually improved my own writing.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Lui5Jo53in, 7 days agoIf I have to pay because they're now using AI APIs to correct texts, I have no reason to use them.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Meyus, 7 days agoAs of lately, wants a subscription even for simple grammar check, with bogus reasoning. Basically lying to the user, why its necessary to pay now. All of a sudden.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Pandorasbox0001, 8 days agoThis is an AI riddled awful checker that now requires payment when it used to be free. I suspect its to fund the AI

- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 18462043, 8 days agoThe overuse of AI is getting tiring. I dont want an "enhanced experience designed to make my writing sound more professional, eloquent and solid", I want a spellcheck that works on several languages, the list of which I can choose from and customize. It was perfect before, there was no reason to change it

- Rated 1 out of 5by Kilominum, 9 days agoIt is a good tool but you only get a 14 day free trial after which it requires you to pay
- Rated 1 out of 5by Thomasp942, 9 days agoThis extension used to be great and it worked perfectly for years. Then all of a sudden it starts with annoying popups all the time and it no longer works. What a shame.
