Calling a Discord Mod "Mom"

I'm literally sobbing and pooing my pants right now, I cannot believe this actually happened..

So I was in a discord server (Social hangout type) and I proceeded to have a conversation with a moderator (unknown age, most likely F). It was going well (good) and while I did chat mainly with the mod, I chatted with other members as well. The mod and other members were actually really nice. However, in an unfortunate series of events, my keyboard has auto-corrected the moderator's name to "mom", instead of their actual name. I've been called out by several members for this incident (which has happened about yesterday) and I felt so embarrassed about it. Even after correcting my original message, the damage had already been done. I peed myself due to the sheer embarrassment I've received, and I've had to go to several therapists in order to recover from this harm.

Despite this, I haven't had any real damage done besides my mental health degrading by approximately 6.23% (I love math!). I cannot believe this has actually happened and I don't know how I can make it up for the server and its members, including the moderator in question.

I know this wasn't my fault, because the main reason why I called the moderator a mother figure is because my keyboard (Samsung Keyboard) has decided that I've misspelled their name. I do, however will take the blame for this. As I have typed the word, the replacement word came out to be the word "mom". It felt so embarrassing calling the moderator a mother figure, I've wondered how many other times I've messed up on social media platforms like this.

The server had assured me that everything was fine, and that the situation could've been easily brushed off. But I still don't know whether I've done any psychological/mental/physical/emotional/social harm to them and the other members.

I feel so bad right now, I don't know what to do.
