Description

Adding an option to fully disable autocorrect feature would be good option. Especially when posting in a different languages other than English where macOS doesn't provide an autocorrect feature for that specific language.

Currently we have to manually disable it for each thread we want to compose. This includes composing multiple posts in a single thread.

Research direction

Start by locating the macOS compose editor and the existing per-thread autocorrection control. Trace how that setting is applied while composing multiple posts. Done means users can choose a persistent option that disables autocorrection across threads, including every post in a multi-post thread.
