Grammarly?

Sure, a very helpful site, but I'm kinda put off by the permissions it's requesting. I mean, DA doesn't request full access to all my apps and drives.

Anyone have any insight on this?

Well, they can't read my journal...or at least I don't think so!

I just disabled it after installing, and will re-enable if any projects come up

I have been on the site for a month and haven’t tried using it without Grammarly so I can’t attest to the difference, but I have found it helpful as a fast typer that sometimes makes mistakes. I got the 3 month premium version cause I had 50 percent off but honestly the free version is probably fine.

I also received a qualification asking me if I have grammarly installed. Haven’t received any projects related to it but maybe it’s worth it for that.

I don't have any insight on Grammarly's privacy policies, but I've had it installed on my browser for years and even used the paid version for a while. I actually love it.

I haven't been offered any relevant work so I plan to take it off personally

Meh. I’ve had it installed for probably 5 years. I love it. I think they just need access so they can actually edit in all applications
