I use a Windows PC for work with Chrome because we are on G suite and it’s just easier that way. I am constantly annoyed by how terrible the spellcheck is within chrome. It did not used to be this bad. It highlights “thier” as misspelled but only suggests thief theirs and shier. Yeah… ok google. Expect me to believe that when AI is in every thing. I can run a LLM on same the laptop OFFLINE. Word 93 knew to autocorrect to their with no internet and no ai. Of course you get frustrated, go to settings and see this stupid little toggle. Fucking Google already… it will only get worse. They’re already key-logging you they just want to pay out less on a future class action settlement. Like the one they just settled for tracking user data during incognito sessions. God damned Google. Oh sorry, I mean aLpHaBeT. You guys like letters now do ya Google? Well here are my faves. F and U !
I've always wondered how that works. Are their databases just too large and it fucks up returns or is there someone smart out there purposely returning bad searches constantly to ruin their spell check. Is their dev inept? Lol.
Gboard was my go to for ages but finding a different keyboard on mobile has not been fun for off brand phones.
Sadly, the best alternative to GBoard on Android is Simple Keyboard, cause the spell check and word prediction on the other alternatives is more annoying than helpful, so it's better to use an app that literally just writes what you type.
Thanks for the recommendation.
Foenthose wonderinf thisnid what Intyped without autocorrrect doing what I normally wpild. Simple Keyboard does not have an autocorrevt at all.
