Eight weeks without autocorrect. I’m not going back.

@janl I did this too after you mentioned it previously and haven’t missed it.
@janl i’ll give it a spin
@janl I’ve been close to a year now, and it’s been great! Also not going back.
@janl Stelle ich immer als erstes aus, ist mir zu viel Bevormundung 😅
@janl I'll give it a go, but I'll probably be ducked without it.
@janl also- why is autocorrection getting worse. something weird is going on.
@ellyxir yeah what could it be?
@janl ai slop code? bad training data? just seems weird because you’d think they’d have data showing it’s getting worse.
@ellyxir @janl As best I can tell, they switched to a “context-aware” probabilistic model rather than a dictionary-based approach. It’s never been purely backed by a dictionary, but I think it at least allowed dictionary words when the probabilistic model judged them unlikely. Now it’s just forcibly regressing to the mean.
