<brag>Idk, somehow I'm fluent in English. So much so that people automatically assume I'm American 🤷🏻♂️</brag>
But I've heard Grammarly is pretty good. Or if you have native speaker friends, let them proofread stuff for ypu
Hi Max! I'm kinda jealous that you speak that frequently as a non-native speaker😂
I grew up in a country where you don't need to speak foreign languages at all. The grammatical structure of our language is completely different from English. So it's very hard for me to write/speak in English... O.K. Enough of weeping.
Thank you for your advice anyway. I don't have close enough friends who can read my long English writing every week. So I decided to ask for a gig to a Fiverr proof-reader. English natives' proofreading rate for non-English natives is average 40USD/1000 words. It cost a bit too much to me, but I must take it as an investment.
It was the same for me - I grew up in Russia, probably the least English speaking country in the world 🙈
I don't. I give in to the darkness and when I feel guilty enough for not doing shit I get a lot of stuff done
Glad there's other like me. You'd think knowing how awful it's going to feel after you've procrastinated would make you not do it in the first place, but I've yet to conquer it.

Well, you should visit Japan😉 Probably I should visit Russia and see how it is, though.
