Rant

A place where you can rant to your heart's content.

Rules :
  1. Follow all of Lemmy code of conduct.
  2. Be respectful to others, even if they're the subject of your rant. Realize that you can be angry at someone without denigrating them.
  3. Keep it on Topic. Memes about ranting are allowed for now, but will be banned if they start to become more prevalent than actual rants.

I don't know if it's because of the new iPhone update or what but it's obnoxiously bad now. The predictive text is always wrong and it types out whole sentences when I'm not looking and I look up and it's nowhere near what I was going to say. It corrects words that are spelt correctly into words that are grammatically incorrect or actively misspelt and it's absolutely bonkers nuts. I feel like it was actually good like ten years ago maybe? And I don't know if it's enshittification, AI being used that's hot garbage, or a bunch of programmers trying to justify their jobs by adding totally unnecessary updates untill it all crumbles into a gigantic pile of shit, but I'm losing my shit about it man. I switched to gboard but that's also annoying me, but that could just be a learning curve with the slight differences. It hasn't actively misspelt anything for me yet or tried to insert an entire sentence I didn't want in there so that's good.

I swear to fucking god I'm just going to turn it off and you'll all be subjected to my horrible typos and everyone will think I'm even dumber than they already think I am.

Not sure if you've seen this video: https://youtu.be/hksVvXONrIo

But it explains what I saw when typing on the later updates for my old phone.
