Both, I use swipe as my go-to method but if it doesn't write the proper word I tend to erase it and type it one letter after the other (which happened 3 times as I wrote this comment).
I didn't care about the hype before it was released, then I waited when I heard about all the bugs and tried it in 1.6. The game is really good when you take it for what it is, rather than what you or others think it should have been.
Soon enough, there will be people who will be active online but haven't seen the time when rage comics were all the rage.
