When tossing the Pinyin solution today, I found that the fcitx5 macos project is available
https://fcitx-contrib.github.io
Rime Pinyin and Mint Pinyin can be easily imported, and the scroll mode is also very comfortable to use

Anonymous8518 May 6, 2025Where is it better than a rat whisker tube? I used the little wolf hair for many years, and then returned the Mac to use the mouse whisker tube. The reason why I use it is very simple, that is, this input method starts too fast. Every time the input method is called out, it takes almost no time, which is much better than the input methods of various major manufacturers in the same period. It can be compared to the native input method. Now I use sogou input method, because I find that the outgoing speed is so fast that there is no perception. There is also better association and pinyin accuracy. So I don't use the mouse whiskers. However, recently, sogou has continuously played skin advertisements, which makes me sick. If there is an alternative plan, it will be nice.

Anonymous13442 May 6, 2025Curious to ask, why do you toss Pinyin? Are you a heavy text user?

Anonymous8519 May 6, 2025@ Anonymous13442 is generally because I don't want to use advertising manufacturing machines like sogou, I don't like Microsoft Pinyin, or I think the thesaurus and association of Microsoft Pinyin are not good, and I like open source software and the freedom of my own configuration

Poster May 6, 2025What are the advantages of this vs. rime?

Poster May 6, 2025Please reply uniformly. I tossed the input method because today I suddenly felt that the words were a little small and I couldn't read clearly. Maybe I was old and blurred, so I had to adjust the font size of the candidate box. When searching for configurations on the Internet, I accidentally found fcitx5-macos and installed it conveniently. So far, I found a few things I like: 1. Scroll mode, like macos native input method, use the arrow keys to expand a few additional lines of candidate words up and down; 2. Commonly used functions have a UI that can be adjusted without touching the yaml file; 3. Fresh The startup speed feels quite fast, and I don't think there are any obvious shortcomings so far

Anonymous1703 May 6, 2025@ Anonymous3044 uses rime but also keeps sogou. Recently, I found that when switching the input method occasionally accidentally cuts to sogou, the disgusting skin pop-up window may pop up... Although it is turned off in the settings, it will still appear randomly.
