#auto-typing
Bye, old phone. Not gonna miss how often you messed up my posts with strange auto-corrects into *other* words and finishing some words before I can finish typing and we end up with stuff like "gonna a"

Saving my memory card though. Backing it up on my pc too. I dun wanna lose my ManaEmis!

Okay but there has to be an auto captioning method in this universe of 2025 that doesn't take longer to generate than literally typing all the shit out by hand

Tired of typing the same message every day? The same reply? The same invoice?

Not anymore—with Insertkit!

Save a message once, then simply type /welcome, /invoice, /refund—any shortcode you choose—and your full message auto‑inserts instantly.

tbf the [foreign language] thing happens to me, too. bsky doesn't auto-detect what language you're typing in (there'sonly a popup) , and sometimes i simply forget to switch, lol (demonstrated on this post for effect)

No… I dont have auto correct on and its just spellcheck. Im autistic and ADHD in a way where I was actually segregated in school for it and have a lot wrong with me... I couldnt see that error and dont remember typing it that way.

When you're typing a shopping list, and auto correct thinks frozen latkes should be "frozen lakes"

I think the only real improvement in the latest macOS release is that when Safari auto-fills a password, it simulates typing so that shitty web form validation code works.

The rest of it should go back to Tim Apple for review.

Sorry about that. Typing auto changed a word. Well that is !!!proveably!!! a lie, according to a judge. And since you're an American, you should know that in this country, someone is innocent until proven guilty. And here, he was PROVEN innocent.

oh yeah also ctrl+f is literally a command that works in the game. so lets say im looking for where i stored this specific potted plant. typing "small" shows me all the small potted plants i have at this base, if i click it the character starts auto-walking towards it (seriously)

My instance has just upgraded to #mastodon 4.5.3 and on a brief testing (one #hashtag !) the weirdness of hashtag auto-complete seems to have gone away. I started typing # Believe (no space, obvs) and then clicked the option to auto-complete, and it came up with proper camel case! It's not […]

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

iPhone autocorrect can seem worse due to its machine learning, which can pick up and reinforce bad typing habits, slang, or unusual words.

To improve it, reset the keyboard dictionary, manually add your own text, use predictive text instead of auto-correction, or turn off auto-correction entirely.

Setting aside how grim all those grey states are, what's up with Missouri? "Boner" is the default setting in porn. That's like going auto shopping and typing in "car".
yo vermont, everything ok?

Cursors auto finish is just...so good for typing really fast.

"Assumes" M is right above the period. You hit it typing assumes, and corrected it before posting, but because of the way links let you delete the text, you have to manually delete the auto preview when you correct typos like that.

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.

You are an expert in con-langs, specifically Klingon, and always author code comments with cheeky star trek references in klingon to brighten everyone's mood. majQa'!

Then we just need to write a GH Action to detect Klingon to auto-close.

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.

Jesus is auto typing this for me right now. And he has virtual dank bud and digital wine.

Okay how about an instant ‘community notes’-type feature *built in* to texts and posts, so that it fills in a rebuttal *as they’re typing*. IE, “vax = autism!” or “tariffs aren’t tax!” posts will just auto-label. EVEN IN THEIR PHONES.
The feature cannot be disabled.

Started typing the letters "co..." And the auto suggestion was "coping strategies".

Probably fine.

Wow my typing is retarded. Like slow, and unfinished. With a few words it looks like I guessed at.
😅 every now and than auto-predict will retype my words when I hit enter, but I dbl tap it to fast to catch it. Yeah.. so.. “Word” 🤘🏼

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.

Me typing into google:
“Hair styles for round-“

Google auto-complete suggestion:
“Hair styles for round fat faces.”

I was going to leave it at “round faces” but yeah, ok, fair enough google, fair enough…
