Point 2 and 6 are 💯💯💯, I use them daily. Even when I decided to create my own VS Code extension, I brainstormed with it. Super useful 😃

“That’s awesome 🚀! Using ChatGPT as a brainstorming buddy while building your own VS Code extension is next-level 👏🔥. Would love to hear more about what your extension does—sounds super useful!

that quotation mark at the start, the frequent use of emoji , the em dash all points out to the fact that you are using chatgpt for even replying comments ! great

Bro , actually my English is weak , that's why I take help of chatgpt to improve my grammar

I get it bro, don't feel depressed, here are some tips (that I follow):

watch so much English videos, because watching native language videos won't help you master English, change your feed/recommendation page to entirely English content only
Think in English, I mean daydream in English, (imagine you talking English to everyone)
Don't focus too much on grammar, watching so much English videos will help you write and speak English without grammar mistake. I don't even know the difference between different tenses in english,
Also don't overly rely in ChatGPT for learning grammar, the first point is more than enough for you ! The more you listen the more you improve

Hope you find this helpful ! No hate ! Keep moving forward ❤️‍🔥😎📈

"Good question 😅 I’m actually planning to start pushing BizKhata development more seriously right after our Product Hunt launch 🚀🔥. Right now, focusing on making the launch solid first!
