Help? update = no facebook tags

Ever since i updated my keyboard, I've not been able to tag people on social media, specifically facebook. 

**update: Temporary solution is to turn off predictive text in keyboard setting**

You know how when you @ someone or a place, the name will link to the profile and become clickable.
But now, no matter what i do, the second i publish the comment, any @ or # turns back to plain text. Even if i go back and edit the comment to re-do the tag, it submits as plain text. Even if i just publish the @ with nothing additional, doesn't work.

Anyone else had this happen?

I'm having the same issue, and it's on both Facebook and Nectdoor, so not app specific.

Turn off the new grammar thing and it goes back to normal.

Turning off the predictive text for the stock keyboard works.

You can also switch keyboards. I switched to the GBoard and it works WITHOUT turning off the predictive text.

Yeah - I found simply changing to GBoars solved it ... Predictive text still on. It's clearly a bug from the update in the Samsung keyboard (with grammarly/predictive text) Annoying

In the bottom right hand corner there are several dots.  If posting with a rage change keyboard to swift for the post.  Work around.
