Never trust autosave. Everything from notepad to Visual Studio gets the Ctrl+S treatment when something is updated.
Is that because of bugs, or shitty software that you don't trust autosave? Isn't it likely that ctrl-s is affected by the same problem and regardless of how compulsively you press the combo, it does in fact nothing?
Note that OPs instance simply had autosave disabled, not really a trust issue
Autosave has intervals, shit can happen between those intervals
I've lost good work to a program crash / power outage / other sudden loss of work enough times to know that trusting autosave when it's there is a fools move
Fair enough obviously a real issue considering that it is not just you but many other in this thread, that are posting the same or upvoting I do wonder what software, or and electricity grid you are all on and if you are typing from a war zone though. It has happened to me too, mind you. Once. It was some sort of word processor, in the 1990s before autosave. Been spending my days on a computer since then for work and hobbies, can't say I remember a single other occurrence after that.
Bruh what? I live in California, wild to jump to questioning if we're in a war zone. The issue is more often crashing software than it is power problems, as well.
Losing power goes beyond the grid though, you can have a power supply fail, animal turn off a power strip your PC is plugged into, a lightning strike can cause momentary grid interruption, a car can knock down a pole and take out local power for a few hours, an idiotic roommate can accidentally hit your PC and cause it to freeze, an animal can knock into your power button or switch and shut your PC down, you can accidentally hit your PSU power flip and accidentally shut it off, and more
All of these ive had happen to me. Not always while I was working on something, but many while I was. Auto recovery doesn't always work for these kinds of things so it is ALWAYS a good idea to save
