On Chrome's workable but sometimes not so perfect spellchecker.
For instance, I was trying to spell Centuries and ended up spelling it centries. Chrome didn't flag it as a misspelling, but I ended up using Polishmywriting.com to spellcheck it. They used to have a chrome extension but it's deprecated now.
I switched to Grammarly and it seems to work for context, and even more impressive, tells me when I'm completely butchering the grammar for something I didn't even notice. Although if I resize the input box, grammar.ly doesn't quite see where the text went and red highlights whatever is now there.

Anyone know of any better solutions for Chrome's spell checker? I'll probably self-correct by habit eventually, but I'm just looking for something better than relying on chrome's spell checker or googling the word when I know I'm not quite right.
As is, the free version of Grammarly works pretty well, but I'm just looking for extra options.
