As a German, I hate that "im" is always going to be corrected to "I'm" if you do write de/en.

Im is like at the moment or inside, used very frequently. So it's hellishly annoying to have to watch for that all the time.

in gboard, at least, you can set two dictionaries for the same keyboard, which I think should theoretically prevent that from happening. If you're using an iphone or another keyboard an equivalent feature might exist.

I know you're probably just ranting but I'm going to say this anyway because I, too, had the same issue before discovering this

gboard

If you haven't considered it already, please consider switching to a open source keyboard that doesn't collect all your typing data like heliboard

Also recommending Futo keyboard (in the Play store or their website) for the same reason!

Futo uses an offline LLM for text/speech predictions so your data never leaves your device.

I remember that I tried it a while ago and there was something that prevented me from actually changing. However, I tried it again now and although I don't remember what that feature was it doesn't seem to be missing anymore so I think that I'm going to try using it from now onwards!

I'm stuck (mentally) with SwiftKey. The language is shown as de/en.

Is there a possibility too?

[–] beegnyoshi@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

go to swiftkey > language > add language and it looks like simply adding a german keyboard should do the trick.

It says:

Multilingual: You can type in any installed language that is supported by your current keyboard layout without the need to switch keyboards.

Ah OK yes thanks I think I misunderstood.

Is there a way to use it without it changing im to I'm all the time.
