As a fellow Futo user: it's not great out of the box. My biggest recommendations are:

  • under Languages and models, download all the voice models (if you use those), transformers, and wordlists you can for your languages
  • if you use multiple languages, set the check on "multilingual typing" for ALL of those languages
  • this is probably the biggest one: in text prediction -> Advanced Parameters, DRASTICALLY change the values. The original ones are 3.4 and 4.0 for LLM strength and autocorrect threshold, mine are currently set at 28.5 and 0.8, respectively. This takes the autocorrect from "occasionally working" to "as good as SwiftKey" for me.
  • Keyboard and Typing -> Long Press -> Show hints. Could not find that for ages so thought I'd add it here.

Also, two super useful shortcuts: you can press the space-bar and move your finger around to move the pointer; and the same for backspace to fine-control what to delete.

Hope this helps, but if not... What additional gripes do you have with it?

That sounds great. I think I've given it more than a month overall, but probably never longer than a week at a time. Guess I'll have to have my SO hide my normal keyboard lol

I built and configured an Arkenswoop some time in 2023. It's really nice. However... I have gotten quite fast on a conventional keyboard just by using it over the years, and re-learning that is just so tedious. Every time I try, something with a deadline comes up, and I switch back "temporarily".

Anyone have experience overcoming this?

I think there's a very strong argument here that this transaction should be taxed in Italy when Italian citizens currently in Italy partake in that transaction.

That's something that is definitely not happening (not that they are being taxed sufficiently elsewhere either, lol).

Eh

Money is not involved directly. User signs away permission to use their data, receives access to service in return.

The company then turns that data into money.

Fair... Sorry, I always forget how prominent Apple devices are in the US.

Thunderbird for mobile is great! And in contrast to the gmail app, search actually works, lol

Oh yeah. I've never gotten as much reading done as when working in-office.

Now if Eelco Doolstra wasn’t fucking around, we could have had a super LTS NixOS - but NOOOO.

My exact thoughts lol

I read this in the voice of Nemik from Andor. Don't know why, I think it's the "Remember one thing"
