What REALLY irks me is that the gboard keyboard on Android is context-sensitive. No, I don't want to have a shortcut for ".com" when long-pressing the period key while typing an address, I want to type a fscking dash!

Seriously, who thought a .com shortcut was necessary? Get rid of uniquely useful keys for stupid gimmicks that save a few seconds at most? Bad design.

You can set it to have symbols on long presses. Saves digging around for most common ones
