A similar one I see quite often is "and" when it should be "an". Not sure if it's an auto-complete thing or they genuinely don't know the difference, maybe due to their accent/dialect. Either way it's like getting tripped while walking when stumbling over it in a sentence.

The then/than problem is also getting out of hand these days. Again, not sure if it's an auto-correct thing or not, but either way it pisses me off much more than it probably should.
They do it for engagement, half the comments will be dimwits correcting their spelling.
And almost all of the comments here are acting like OP isn't just reposting ragebait from reddit so I guess the fediverse can't really dunk on tiktok
It’s never going to happen as modern English is six small children in a trench coat but it’d be lovely if there was a spelling reform like German went through. While there are one or two quirks (long/short unspelled vowels, no one pronounces -ig properly, Berliners insist on being weirdos), you can generally know exactly how a written word is pronounced in (standard) German.

I lost it by trying to press play too many times on screenshots of videos
"Noone" is another one I've been seeing recently. Should be "no one".
Less common but more confusing is using "are" for "our".
More young people should be mad about the shitty education they got, instead of taking correction as a personal attack.
We couldn't do a lot for my son, but we made damn sure he could read and write. He read well above grade level throughout school.
Spelling reform (the natural way) is spooky
This is a pet peeve of mine, I see “loose” used incorrectly all the time.
So much badlinguistics in this thread I don't even know where to start.
