Does anyone else absolutely loathe phone keyboards?

I am mistyping things ALL the fucking time. I don't even have big fingers or anything either I just feel like the phone sucks at reading my inputs a lot of the time. I've tried using Samsung's keyboard, I've tried Swiftkey, I've tried Google's. I hate them all. Part of me misses the tactile feel of actual keyboards on older flip phones lol. I know they sell extensions for smart phones so you can have an actual keyboard but it makes your phone a lot bulkier. I've heard rumors that Sony wants to make the PS5 controller a touchscreen and I think I'd kill myself if I had to play my games that way.
