mccWait hold on I just realized. Is
八人入
A reasonable Chinese sentence
…Also waaaa why did the character rendering change so much when I copied from Pleco to Tusky. Who gave eight a hat
In Pleco they look like this. I don't know if this is a different but regular hanzi font or if the CJK unification is messing me up somehow
EDIT: I currently think Tusky is showing me Japanese character variants https://social.mildlyfunctional.gay/@artemist/116146010272716935
WAIT WTF this is an actual Chinese IME and it seems to be showing me Japanese characters. Ok I think Lenovo is fucking with me, one minute
Okay I now believe the problem is neither Tusky nor Lenovo but rather that Android is not a serious product and never has been. It seems Android may outright refuse to show scripts unless you've whitelisted the language. Problem: I think this menu is asking me which version of Chinese I want but the menu is in Chinese. I want to look at Chinese text so I can learn Chinese. I don't know it yet. I feel like I'm playing an adventure game.
* I may explore a PR later anyway.
Actually I'm pretty sure 简 already means simplified, so I selected simplified at the top level, and this second menu is asking… I don't know. Locale? TTS dialect?!
Update: I solved the problem, not by adding Chinese as an alternate language for my Android, but by deleting Japanese as an alternate language. Not sure when I added Japanese in the first place or what I was trying to accomplish but I question Google's decision that informing it I may look at text in Japanese makes it conclude I DEFINITELY won't be looking at Chinese!
My name is Gordo@mcc I would love to understand this joke, but the present lack of context is good too, lol.
