(https://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/inputmethod/EditorInfo#IME_FLAG_NO_PERSONALIZED_LEARNING) - GTK_INPUT_HINT_PRIVATE for GTK4. (https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/issues/2261) So Firefox and Chrome use this flag in private browsing mode, so when using private browsing mode, IME doesn't learn user's input history. But Safari/macOS still learns input history of IME even if private browsing mode. Safari/macOS shouldn't learn input history of IME even if private browsing mode like Chrome and Firefox. I believe that personal privacy is high priority as Apple, but this issue isn't better than Google, Mozilla and Microsoft.
