  the auto predictions always give me more words than i need, so i have to type normally, like it wasn’t there, or select, hope it doesn’t load, and delete

    And when i go to click on an auto prediction it changes it at the last damn second too. That drives me mad

      This is my beef with basically all modern interfaces. Stuff changes and moves with just enough of a delay to cause me to miss click. Autocomplete changing recommendations on phones, UI elements shifting on web pages, etc.

        I thought i was getting old. I mean, i am, but this just enough delay miss-clicks makes me feel even older

    This has been something so frustrating that nobody seems to talk about. They really need to provide autofill that only adds the one next word, rather than two or three. Because otherwise, the autofill becomes useless.
