  • That's wild, flat out telling the community they're going to refuse to implement something if they want it enough to ask for it

    I won't presume how easy or hard implementing that would be, but I have a hard time believing it would be so significant that this stance makes any sense at all

  • I'm not positive but I'm assuming they're referring to a kind of MFA where the authenticating service pushes to the client you possess rather than relying on a temporal cryptographic key. I've got a few services which work that way

  • Yeah, I've used swipe typing for a really long time myself, and was forced to switch to GBoard when Swype was discontinued, and I can't even begin to express how much better Swype was and I would switch back to it in a heartbeat if they came back and updated it. The accuracy was way better, going back to previous words showed you the same alternate options so you could just keep going and go back to correct when you were done... And probably best of all, it gave more than just the three alternates so it was way rarer that it didn't have the word you were looking for. Even just typing this, I'm having to stop after pretty much every word to make sure it's giving me the right thing, which slows me way down.

    Typing on phone could be so much better. It was so much better.

  • I actually didn't know that was changeable, one of my most hated "features" of my phone that it wants to bring up an AI assistant I'll never use and didn't ask for when doing something that has brought up the power menu on every phone I've ever owned

  • If by "regular power button menu" you mean holding the power button for a couple seconds, that was changed at least on pixel devices to bring up some bullshit called "Gemini", some AI from googie that I never got a chance to say no to. Power + volume up is now how we get to the power menu, because of course they would change the function everyone uses occasionally to a more obscure combination without notice
