Oh nice, I never thought of that. I would love to see the list of these unacceptable words, I can almost understand it not wanting to type out "fuck" but iirc they were also not autocorrecting "abortion" at one point which is a little ... conservative

They put those various in because there was a time when it would autocorrect the other way duck would become fuck if misspelled kind of thing.

And usually a misplaced duck is less harmful in a polite/business setting than a misplaced fuck.

“I saw a fuck on the road on the way to work” in work chat is a different type of embarrassment than “what the duck were you thinking you ducking idiot” in a personal text.

oh yeah I get it, I’d just love to see the list of words out of sheer curiousity

I'd assume it must be somewhere in the source, so perhaps someone has already decompiled it.

Thank you so much. This alone is a quality of life improvement on an ios keyboard. I'll live with s/well/we'll/ if it stops trying to police my tone when I'm annoyed
