This is it. Gboard autocorrect has felt shittier to me recently as well, so I turned it off.
Comment on Am I going crazy, or has people's spelling gotten awful lately?
KazuyaDarklight@lemmy.world 5 days agoNot saying it is, but accidental, quality degrading, changes to a major/prevalent auto-correct system could result in what OP is claiming. Just to give an example.

That’s a fair point, I was just wondering if they had a specific theory as to why it suddenly changed since they were asserting that it had.

I don’t think most people realize how much they rely on auto correct when they are on a phone. When I switched to a new keyboard because I like local hosting my voice recognition the auto correct was initially way worse and my typing speed went down by maybe half.
