That is what puzzled me as well. It litelarly works in every other app, except Jerboa. In have no idea why, and I have asked this same question a few times here on Lemmy, but no one seems to know the answer.

That’s just it. It’s set to Gboard spell checker, but it doesn’t work in Jerboa.

That said, isn’t spellcheck underlining more frequently in the apps you’re typing into rather than the virtual keyboard?

That is something that has always puzzled me, and yes, I believe you’re right.

But, the confusing part for me is, Gboard has a spellcheck option, and if I disable it, it doesn’t underline words when typing (in apps that normally check spelling).

But, let’s take Jerboa for example. It doesn’t work in Jerboa. No matter if enabled or disabled, there is no spellcheck in Jerboa, period.

And that is why things are confusing. Is it the apps that do the spellcheck or the keyboard 🤔.

For me, it would be logical if the keyboard does it (since it’s software, you can easilly add this option), just reports back to the software whether it should underline the word or not. But I could be wrong about this since I’m not a dev.

Have no idea. I just know that Swift only does word suggestion, couldn’t find an option to just underline words.

Which of them offer spelling check underline?

OK, what if I just care for privacy and I’m happy with the QWERTY layout?

I’d love to ditch Gboard, but it has my native language in it, plus word underline when misspelling words. I don’t use predictive text or anything like that, just underline (I hate predictive text, it messes up my train of thought).

Alternatives?

Meeh, I’ll see what happens… though I would prefer to be on an instance that defederated as well.

no Federation with instances that use altered versions or proprietary versions of AP.

They will try and do this… they might opt to use hooks though… that way, they don’t have to disclose source… or will just disclose the changes that add more hooks. What will they be used for? I think we know.

I don’t comment on YT to be honest… or very rarely… it has to be something that if found REALLY REALLY interesting or informative to comment.

Look at the DIY and disassembly tutorials, I can vouch that most (if not all) of them are great and don’t misinform on anything.

Some of the ideas may be stupid though, I can agree with that 😂.

The only problem - everyone uses it. And it’s a good source of info for all sorts of things (disassembly tutorials, DIY, etc.).

Size of the drives?

You know nothing about me or my history/experience in life… yet, you’re free to comment on it, but I’m not allowed 😒…

That may be your POV, but I think we can agree that it might not be everyone’s.

Because most just assume that I live in the US and start posting things that are US specific.

My point was, we come from a different background and different life experiences. I laid out my experience and piointed out, on a number of times, that experiences may differ and that this is just my own personal opinion and experience. You don’t like it, don’t read it 🤷.

There is no fruit.

Just make a new account man, it’s not that hard 🤷.

I don’t think he actually needs any sponsors.

OK, your take on things I guess 🤷.
