I’m also a millennial and I was taught how to use a computer so of course I edit my messages.

Feel blessed that you never had to deal with drama from someone kicking off that a message no longer says what it used to.

We must be on different sides of the generational line. Editting texts is something that wasnt available to me until i was old enough to not notice it was possible. Im lucky my T9 "spelling" habits have diminished, but i dont know if my correcting text via * ever will

I guess it depends on how into technology you are. I pay attention to new features of devices and updates and I also read modals when they tell me things. A lot of people just skip past those things so they never learn.
