 The mention or the backspace issue? Mentions are a keyboard issue. Backspace issue still unsure.

 Amethyst crashes when I try to mention.

I have the backspace issue on both Amethyst and Primal using Openboard, but not with Samsung keyboard 🤮 or Unexpected Keyboard.

 Okay, I'm now using Openboard and got both working - I believe the issue is related to word suggestions. I've disabled those and it's working now.

 That makes sense. Did you turn off autocorrect as well?

 Should've been clearer, all suggestions and autocorrect.
However Openboard seems to have a dependency between next word suggestions and corrections. Auto-corrections also don't seem to work with suggestions turned off from my testing.

 I disabled suggestions and it seems to have fixed it. I left auto-correct on and haven't had any issues so far.

 Does auto-correct actually work though? 
Either way thanks for confirming, I'll need to check on auto-correct a bit more then.

 It's working with reduced functionality. It will add apostrophes and fix some mistakes, but doesn't seem as robust as with predictive/suggestions enabled.
