At least that stuff was written in cleartext. You'd immediately know you just typed the wrong character if you saw PRONT on your screen.
replyAuthor here. Thank you so much for the link which I hadn't seen! I'm very happy to see this and I'm gratified that it was deliberately difficult to OCR, not just me.

replyOn a Samsung S24U I held down the "circle to search" homescreen button which brings up the AI tools interface (I don't know what it's officially called), held down on the text and copied the whole thing in one shot.
It took like 2 seconds.
Did it get every character correct?
replyI watched the link but I didn’t see where he talked about making it difficult to OCR? What exactly was done that made it difficult to OCR?
