Enshittifying my own phone keyboard's auto correction by having progressively worse typing as my nails have been growing out since August and I have to say it is pretty darn lost. Certified stupid ass keyboard

Another day, another software development app that's shoved in a new feature that covers up what I'm typing with a list of auto complete suggestions. At least this one provided a link at the bottom of the unwanted list that took me to the settings page where I could uncheck every goddamn box for it.

a fun trick i play on myself that has also helped me in many purchasing choices is to simply never allow for auto pay or keeping of credit card information on any storefront whatsoever. typing in the card information too strenuous? can't find my wallet? depression shopping? wasn't worth it then.

I don't know if it's Chrome or Bluesky, but I was typing a post and and something auto-corrected "With" to "switch" in a sentence where "With" made sense and "switch" rendered the sentence meaningless.

Today's "Fun Fact":
Your phone won't auto-correct for you if you are typing in all caps. I can only surmise that the reason for this is that it thinks you are extremely angry and it doesn't wanna get involved..
This also explains a lot of Trump's posts and typos.

And/to be clear not because I’m special but just because that’s the kind of world we live in and people can just do that
Also/unrelated why the fuck does Apple think making the cursor super hard to see in dark mode either looks good or is a good idea
My vision is not *THAT* bad but what the fuck

I tried to type “something” while texting, and I accidentally ended up typing letters that my phone auto-corrected to “AI ethos” and wow that’s almost an oxymoron. Also, my phone is bad for doing this and I am throwing it away.

God yes. that and just... deciding it knows what you're going to search for before you finish typing, auto-completing it with what can often at times be described as "A WILD GUESS", and you type so fast that by the time you press enter you're searching for the WRONG THING.

Seeing the whole DA’s office gasp when I showed them how my typing “SIZ/SIZ” auto-translates to —
“Q. Are you aware this conviction could affect your rights to remain in this country?”
— was absolute gold.
My judge asks the same questions during pleas & I ain’t writing it out every time. 😂 (2/2)

No worries. I myself can blame auto correct sometimes. Mostly no checking my typing for me is the downfall.

If you have an iPhone you can make typing the #secretsantaaonz hashtag (or indeed anything you type a lot) easier in the Settings > General > Keyboard > Text Replacement menu! I’ve set “#sec” to auto-type “#SecretSantaAoNZ”!

Between typing Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Shae-Lynn Bourne and @sheacarlson.bsky.social, my phone has completely given up on attempting to auto-correct that name.

(I looked at my old burner Twitter account a while back, which I was using to follow very naughty Spanish-speakers, and found that they were all typing in... English? Nope. Auto translated by brook. Fuck you, brook, I'll figure it out on my own!)

The worst part about sentence correction is that the toggle just says WORDS, you have to click on the text to find the second menu that lets you turn off SENTENCES
So hot tip everyone turn this shit off if you don't want Gboard rewriting your sentences
