Verification, the part that should be free is the part everyone charges for. Thats the shape Let's Encrypt fixed for TLS, and I wanted the sa
Show HN: I can't seem to text properly on an iPhone, so I built my own keyboard
== The problem ==I’ve never been able to text properly on a phone. I’ve tried with two thumbs, one thumb, and every other way I can think of. Nothing works for me. I can only seem to text with my right index finger while holding the phone in my left hand, which is at best is slow and full of typos. I find myself fighting autocorrect as much as using it.
