"I honestly absolutely no idea what we should have done differently"
"We work immensely had to product original content"
Writers write so much that their fear of shipping their writing is diminished through practice, so they write, ship, write, ship, write, ship. They're in creative mode, just putting words on the paper. They're busy, so they go quickly, so that they can get more done. They know that when it matters, they can copyedit—or have someone else proofread.
On the other hand, there are those of us who will spend an extra 5 minutes on every comment we post looking over it out of perfectionism or OCD or fear of the inevitable, "You sound like a moron" comment later in the thread.
I've taken to really admiring the type-type-type get a million emails/comments/tweets/posts out a day style.
Move fast and break things. Edit later.
I think when you have such a high profile and mass visibility, the bar for quality is raised higher (or should be), even in the context of speed posting and scoops. Your product influences a generation that is sadly forgetting and ignoring the value of proper grammar.
What if time("go quickly... get more done") + time(fixing "[broken] things") > time("spend an extra 5 minutes")?

I can't tolerate this style. In my experience, the type-type-type individuals often express their ideas in unclear ways.
Measure twice, cut once. I proudly spent 6 minutes writing this reply.
"Move fast and break things. Edit later." Perfect.

I'm not saying people won't notice there's something wrong with what you wrote. They will. But they'll be able to understand you perfectly despite that.
Ironically, you can't edit posts on Facebook.
I prescribe a copy of Strunk and White with a healthy dose of proofreading.
