Auto correct gets me every time.
And I agree it depends were you live, its mostly enforced on farms/livestock/crops.
Have you noticed how awful autocorrect has become? I remember back in Android 9 you had to try to make it get it wrong. Now it's this and Apple has it just as bad.
Has anyone noticed that gum's gotten mintier lately?
You're ducking right, it was better in the days of You're.
I noticed a big change when i moved to a FOSS keyboard for my phone.
That said, since I moved, it feels like I see more obv typos among others. Weird.
I've had a theory on autocorrect for years. Call me a conspiracy theorist or a nutter. But its all by design. They talk about writing "finger prints" I think auto correct catalogs our misspelling fingerprints. Our patterns
And yes its insanely bad at right click correcting, I have to do a search and it comes back 100%... Maybe by design?
My conspiracy theory regarding the enshittification of autocorrect is that they're trying to make us all look & feel stupider until we finally accept it & incrementally lower our intellectual standards.
Thats possible and the more I think about it it makes sense.
