Alice Averlong🏳️⚧️the button I want most in my Typing English career: a "yes that's misspelled, correct it to the first suggestion" button.
having to switch to a mouse to click on the spellchecking for every minor word is so tedious
maybe if you hit it again after it applies a correction, it goes to the 2nd most likely suggestion
Nina Kalinina@foone like IME for Japanese but in English? Would be nice. The Japanese keyboards often have extra buttons for that, even (to the left and to the right of the space, for different types of autocorrect)
Emelia/Emi@nina_kali_nina @foone Isn't the IME more for auto*complete* than 'correct'? (Although I suppose you could probably repurpose them for autocorrect in English mode with no problems, assuming you can figure out how to implement that...)
Also, isn't that one of the purposes of the menu key still being a thing on almost every US keyboard? to allow opening the context menu to select a correction without needing to use the mouse? (With the exception of ones that were "we're totally not a monopoly" pressured by microsoft to add a non-reprogrammable bullshit-machine button instead...)
@becomethewaifu @foone depends on how you set it up, I suppose. Google IME offers autocorrect out of the box in some but not all languages. English Handwriting is one of those.
@nina_kali_nina @foone Yeah, it's not at all surprising that some IMEs integrate autocorrect with the autocomplete, especially on phones, but my desktop IME (mozc) usually gives nonsense when I mis-type something by one character...
@becomethewaifu not too surprising, yeah. Though Google Input works on desktops, including Windows.
