For some reason, in Jerboa, my autovorrect doesn’t work. Is anyobe else experiencing this? (I usually correct my mistajes, but I want to point them out)

    I end up with bigger problems where after I type a comment, then wanna go back and change a word, Jerboa gets totally confused and wants to like erase the first words or random words in my comment.

      Also it breaks text selection for some reason. Normally I double tap a word to select it, but in Jerboa (and only in it), I have to long press the word instead, which is more difficult since that can get picked up as trying to drag the cursor.

        I’ll be honest, I’ve noticed weird issues with various Android keyboard apps under various other apps lately as well.

        It got so bad for me, I uninstalled my keyboard app updates to go back to the assumed stable built-in GBoard app, and even that is now goofing up in YouTube.

        I don’t even think it’s a Jerboa specific issue.

          The word selection is definitely Jerboa-specific for me. If I double tap a word in any other app’s free text fields, it selects the word. Not so in Jerboa.

            My usage case can’t seem to allow edits. Like, it I try to move the text cursor around and then try to paste a link or anything for that matter, it starts overwriting the words at the beginning of my post.

          Maybe its an android issue. This is the only app I regularly type in.
