Can we all agree that whatever version of predictive text we have nowadays is crap, and has been for a long time? (self.technology)

I'm sick of random capitalisations mid sentence. I'm sick of common words being replaced by less common ones or even downright nonsense. I'm sick of it taking three attempts to successfully get the word I want. I swear it's been like this for five years or more. Can we have a better version yet, or at least the old one back?

What what?

~~I really don't get people who express their inability to understand something without a specific question. As if being dumb were something to be proud of.~~

EDIT: Sorry, was thinking of an unpleasant thing.

This thread is about predictive typing and your post was so barely tangentially related as to be a non-sequitur. So again I ask: What?

Which is your opinion, not accompanied with anything to help me care. Again, if a certain connection or association is real, but still feels out of place for you, then the problem is likely with yourself and doesn't concern me.
