That’s totally not fair. Some things are more wrong than others. And the “everything is correct even” language people are just as insufferable as the “there is exactly one correct usage” people.
Using it’s instead of its is not slang, or an evolving use or alternative spelling. It’s simply wrong.

i’m glad this is being discussed. i felt like i was among very few in how i felt about that use of its vs it’s.
just say “it is” and use it’s as the possessive… like every other word in the language and stop failing people on exams
So should we use your’s too? and hi’s?
I don’t disagree that it’s wrong, but I had no difficulty understanding the sentence so I don’t care. The correction is just a distraction.
