Non native english speakers, when did you stop apologizing for "bad english"

Speaking I don't really do, but if I'm writting a long ass text and it's a fairly serious discussion I might add "might contain grammar mistakes as I'm not a native" but that's very rare

I stopped doing that in what 2012?

English is a batshit language and hard as fuck if you’re not born into it. 
 

I say that as a native English speaker. 
 

I would never dog pile on someone for speaking “badly” if it’s not their 1st language. If you can learn English and speak enough of it to become even “passable” in it, you display an intellectual depth that many native speakers lack.

I think when I was around 14-15-ish. I realized that even though I do make small mistakes here and there, A) people can still understand what I’m saying, and B) I don’t feel like people really care if I make a mistake, so I’m not gonna apologize for it
