My take is this: We are so lucky that the entire world is standardizing on a language we already speak that I am not complaining when grammar slips. I’d rather chat with people from Myanmar and Estonia than worry about misplaced modifiers and split infinitives.
Who IS Noone, anyway? And why does she like grammar nazis?
I don’t like seeing “noone” Makes me have to re-read the post to try & figure out what was actually meant. I see it and go for NOON. Or Peter Noone. Anyone remember him? Or the group he sang with?

Always loved that… correct poor vocabulary and get compared to a regime that killed millions of innocents.

This is about spelling, not grammar.
