Hello spellcheck are you still there?
Spellcheck no longer works on the feed or on the forums (chat is still working for now).

It still underlines the incorrect spelled word, allows you to highlight and then right click to bring up the spelling suggestions, but selecting the correct suggestion does not update the word at all.

It's kinda low key annoying. When do you plan on addressing this fix?

It has been broken for a while. Hopefully they fix it soon.

You guys ever had working spellcheck? For me, it complains about every. Single Word.

While writing this, "You", "guys", "ever" (and so on and so forth) get red squiggles. And that's been like that since there's been a spellcheck on Steam in the first place.

Yeah spellcheck worked fine up until recently. You needed to highlight the word with the red squiggly first then right click and select the suggested word for some reason. But that is now completely borked.

Yeah, Steam, anyone there to hear us? Our conversations have lost all the spark since this started happening.
