I've been noticing it for years. Back when I first started using Swype and then Swiftkey you could vaguely swipe the word somewhere close on the keyboard and it would be correct, then I had to keep resetting the predictions every few months when they got bad. Eventually that stopped working and would make weird suggestions even when super careful. I switched to GBoard which was a bit better but the predictions seem to be getting worse there as well.
Yes 100% no matter the keyboard I use swype typing (and heck even regular typing) ha sntoigsbly gotten worse as the years/time goes by and I don't get it. You'd think they'd get better.
This is on iOS and Android. (iOS swype by far is dog shit, the worst of the bunch)
