    There’s a preference to turn Character Preview (the popup showing which character you just typed) back on, no pref for case shifting though.

    @gruber What about the lower case keys bugs you? Key's visual size shifting or something?

    @gedeon I find the back-and-forth jarring. Feels like I’m changing keyboards, not changing case.

        @gruber @gedeon There’s a flicker when changing that they ought to fix. And lowercase glyphs don’t feel like they’re sized/centered right.

      @gruber @gedeon Yeah, I'm not a fan. I remember many people suggested doing this to Apple. I hope this is them showing why it's a bad idea.

      @gruber @gedeon When my finger taps on one character, my eyes are usually on the next character(s) I'm about to tap. The change confuses me.
