We had dictionaries. And card catalogs. And periodical listings. It was awful!! I just did a Google search & I found this. https://zapier.com/blog/prowritingaid-vs-grammarly/

It was an interesting read comparing the two apps. I’ve only ever used Grammarly but the review thought ProWritingAid did a better job on technical pieces.

I’m glad you enjoyed the piece! Have a very Happy & Safe 4th of July!
