I know exactly what you meant but these typos are strangely hilarious. Cheers, we all make silly typos sometimes. Me especially when I’m typing on a phone because I hate using autocorrect.
For anyone confused: car manufacturers / price hike
This is 100% Gboard autocorrecting words that are already correct. It feels the need to speak for me. I’m so fucking sick of it changing already correct words to what it thinks I need to type. I’ve even fucking emailed Google about it. They think they’re helping us type better and faster, but they’re actually making us type slower, as we have to fucking double check everything we type.
You realize you could have turned the auto correct off probably 100 times over the amount you have complained about it right? Takes 2 seconds.
That’s certainly what I did years ago now. I think for some folks old habits die hard and people aren’t wrong that it used to be better. 🤷
Have you tried typing without it? It’s so fucking painful with my fat fingers. No worries, though. I’ve found a better keyboard. Free and open source. FUTO Keyboard. I’ll keep using it over Google’s shit. Thanks to Louis Rossmann
If I were a conspiracy theorist I’d say they’re deliberately making it shittier to push voice-to-text for that sweet, sweet AI training data.
But I think it’s probably just incompetence. Keyboards from a decade ago were a lot better at learning your typing/swiping patterns, I feel.
I don’t think it’s a conspiracy. Like you said, it’s incompetence. I’ve found a better keyboard luckily. FUTO. It’s baserd on the AOSP keyboard and it even has sliders to make autocorrect more or less aggressive, and to get a local AI involved more or less as you please. Keyboard is FOSS, too. Fuck Google Keyboard 🖕🏽
