Linux is missing a proper background process to apply automatic spellchecking, no matter what language. So, Aspell would be ideal to fill this gap.
Alternatives
There is Autokey and recently, Espanso but adding words by hand is just hell and not optimal if you need dictionary lists. Even worse, if you speak multiple languages and not "just" english. Text expanders are useful, but only for exceptions and aren't meant to be dictionary lists.
Solution
Aspell isn't a recent project and it isn't in is infancy.
Linux systems could have use for a background process to correct misspelled words in all text editors. (Eventually add a blacklist to manually exclude some apps where spellchecking isn't desired)
I understand Aspell is supported by a few text editors only apart the obvious terminal interface, but there is not even a list to see which apps are supported. Sad. Finally, Aspell is somehow useful and somehow useless at the same time - using Aspell with the terminal is a waste, for the big potential it has.
