> I get confused by people who disable autocorrect

I want to speak with my own voice, not Apple's autocorrect voice. Doubly so in casual jokey chats. I do agree that it's unusable without it, but I ducking hate it.



They fixed the thing that always autocorrects away from swear words in the 2023 release FYI (maybe 2022, I can’t remember.) They made a special point of mentioning it at WWDC.

I can now type “fucking” reliably without it replacing it.


Rightyho, now for all the other things, like rightyho. Or a thousand other smallish things that are hard to write the way I want to.
