This feedback is well intentioned, so please don't take it as an attack.
As much as we'd rather it not be the case, even for programmers writing skills are incredibly important. This comment is contains a few grammatical errors and is quite hard to read - I checked your comment history and many others suffer from the same problem. As some who hires, if I read a job application with this quality of writing, I'd probably dismiss it.
If you're having trouble finding a job, it may be helpful to have someone read over any written material you submit alongside your CV (cover letters etc) just to make sure it's clear and easy to understand.
I really apricate your feedback. Just one thing you should take into consideration, that is, as ESL I am not going to put that much effort on writing comments on HN to check for every grammatical error. I simply don't have that much time and energy.
I do understand what you say. But that is not the case sadly.
Completely valid point and shows my shortcoming. I hope I will improve it. But with COVID19 and danger of going homeless, it has become hard for me to manage it all. But you are completely right.

Yeah, I had a hunch that might have been the case, but didn't want to make too many assumptions. I can't string a single sentence together in another language, so I can only guess at what a pain it must be to deal with on a day-to-day basis!
