Kelly

bert_macklin_fbi,

My first try yielded “Kelly” but was about to get “Lemmy” on my second try. I recommend trying to touch the space to the right of the “L”.

Lemmy

Holy shit, it worked!! Took 3 tries though.

I deleted “Kenny” and now it seems to do it fine if I double boop the M.

CouncilOfFriends,

Just to confirm you’re not crazy, I tried the standard method of adding a word by manually typing ‘lemmy’ and then tapping the same word on the suggestion bar, which didn’t work.

Tested adding other nonsense words like treypses which worked as expected for swyping, but to get Lemmy to work I had to add Lemmy in Gboard’s personal dictionary

Worked for me after about 3 uses.

Mango,

Adding to the various dictionaries didn’t work for me, but this guy’s suggestion did! lemmy.world/comment/6948861

    Are you that naive? Why are you defending Google anyway? Google most definitely has a backdoor filter to block FOSS and communist apps like Lemmy and fediverse in general. I also tested Gboard and I can’t gesture type Lemmy. This is proof Google is doing some shenanigans. And I challenge you to try it yourself, stop shilling Google dude!

    Works for me. Make sure you scribble on the M while you’re over it.

    Mango,

    Is that a thing? I’ve noticed better results with some words when I make sure I make a hard turn or pause on a letter.

    Both are indeed things.

    Works here. I can never get it to swipe type “Mastodon” though.

    Mastodon

    First try.

    I’ve learned that pausing a bit on letters helps and also extending a bit further past the ones on the ends.

    Lines in italics were typed, lines not in italics were swiped, bold was swiped then selected from the suggested word list. It took a little bit but I managed to train it to do it.

    Mango,

    We need you in my QA department.
