What approx. % of your responses on Fluther are written from Mobile vs. computer?

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:There is a 50/50 chance that any post you see from me here is from my Android phone during one of my breaks at work, and the fact that the keyboard on my phone is the size of merely six keys on my desktop rig at home shows. I try to get it right, but it takes me considerably longer; this post that takes me less than 2 minutes on my home PC would take me at least 5 on my phone. For all of you grammar/punctuation Nazis who think that every error is the result of not caring, try typing using soup cans instead of your fingers and see how well you type when you can’t help but press half the keys at the same time! “Oh, it only takes a second, so you must be lazy!”. I’ll break out the stopwatch and time you; if it takes you longer to type a post with soup cans than with your fingers, your argument is invalid.
