@jackbrewster@hachyderm.io Yes. It’s been happening for at least a couple of years. I got super fast typing on iPad when I was at the University of Oregon, taking notes in class, and some update happened and suddenly I couldn’t type at my normal speed anymore without huge chunks of text disappearing. It only gotten worse since then, on every iOS device I use.

@hollie@social.coop @jackbrewster@hachyderm.io they added a feature where if you two-finger tap on the keyboard it selects current word and three-finger tap it selects current paragraph. Previously you had to do this on the text itself, not the keyboard. If you type fast and have multiple fingers down near the same time and iOS recognizes it as this gesture, then you select a bunch of text and immediately replace it with whatever key you hit next.
