Can we all agree that whatever version of predictive text we have nowadays is crap, and has been for a long time? (lemmy.world)

I'm sick of random capitalisations mid sentence. I'm sick of common words being replaced by less common ones or even downright nonsense. I'm sick of it taking three attempts to successfully get the word I want. I swear it's been like this for five years or more. Can we have a better version yet, or at least the old one back?

No, because words that use repetition of the same series of letters requires a delay between each letter input

only if you were typing letter by letter instead of using the built-in dictionary. you could just press 8-2-5-5 and it would offer both "talk" and "tall", for example.
