>People riding horse buggies probably thought the same when powered vehicles first came about, and look at the world now. You won't know unless you give it a honest try.
This is a ridiculous non-analogy.
I'm flying a jet airplane, and you're telling me to give Ford Model T a try because you don't understand flight as a concept.
Or, in this case, Flow typing.
From Keybee's website:
>Some syllables and some words can be inserted through a simple combination of tap & swipe (we call it twipe) greatly reducing the number of touches for typing a text. For now the twipe is limited to the adjacent keys. Keybee Keyboard is swipe friendly.
I am typing an entire word with one "twipe" on GBoard.
Each word.
I'm done with touchscreen input methods that require me to think about tapping letters. I don't think in individual characters, and I don't type in them either.
Let me know if I can make it any clearer.
Also gboard is the best keyboard for that. Nothing else implements a prediction model over a number of words as far as I can tell. Or if they do, they fail really badly at it.
