Long-press “.” should prioritize “?” instead of “.”
unplugged TESTER ·
What would you like?
When long-pressing the period key, I think the first/default popup character should be "?" rather than another "."
The normal tap action already produces ".", so having "." as the first long-press option is redundant. Gboard handles this nicely: long-pressing the period key gives quick access to "?", making question marks much faster to type.
Why it would help
It reduces an unnecessary gesture and makes frequently used punctuation faster to access, while the normal period remains available with a simple tap.

There is an enhancement in the pipeline that allows you to customize the keys you would keep on long pressing "." and the order you would like to have those keys. Hopefully that will fulfill this requirement.
Tested this in b410 and it works great! I can now choose any symbol as the default one when long-pressing the period key. It’s really convenient and exactly what I was hoping for.
Thanks for adding this!
