This picture isn’t mine BTW. I don’t have an Apple Watch and never want to buy one.

    Phone keyboards aren’t designed for phones, they’re designed for computers, so some people who have issues getting used to that much precision to type (and may even have physical difficulty to do so). While keyboards like messagease keyboard exist on the google play, i feel like it lacks features and customability, and i wish there were more options than just this one google play app. Until then, I’m stuck with what I have.

    Voice assistants, in a way, are “”“better”“” because they’re accessible. They’re clunky too because the technology isn’t perfect, and it sucks that they’re spyware, but at least, unlike qwerty/azerty/dvorak/colemak/whatever keyboards, these are ok-ish to use on phones

      Whoa I never heard of messagease before, just tried it out and it seems pretty neat. Doesn’t have any word suggestions, but if it did, I’d use it a lot and try to get good with it.

          I’ve been messing around with 8Vim on FDroid. It seeks to mimic the motion of handwriting. It’s hard to explain but seems unique.
