@alterelefantFrank Heijkamp For me, it has gone completely downhill since 2019. It was almost perfect then. I remember thinking "Wow! This is so good!" then it just became bad the next update, and worse after that. How is this happening? Why make something perfect worse? Like, it's fine to stop updating a feature if it's at max perfect, just don't touch it anymore.

@Em0nM4stodonEm I hear you. I have exactly the same experience. About six years ago autocorrect on Android was amazing, it worked really well. After the following update by Google it became absolutely rubbish and I have never managed to get it exactly back to where it was. At the moment it is pretty close but my fear is that everything will be gone again after the next update.
