minus-squareJeena@piefed.jeena.netlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up12·5 months agoThe speech to text is too slow for me, especially if you use 4 languages like me. In the end I switched to HeliBoard, there I can type those 4 languages without changing the keyboard.

minus-squareJeena@piefed.jeena.netlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·5 months agoI use Genman, Swedish, Polish and English. And then I have to switch to Korean to a seperate one because it’s a very different Keyboard. I guess you would have the same problem with Japanese because it doesn’t use the latin characters either.
