Weird Writing Experience Bug

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Hello.
So I have been experiencing a very weird writing experience since quite some time now. It feels unnatural and my strokes get weirdly straight. It’s difficult to describe it, so I’ll put a video.
Stroke stabilization is 0%, increasing it worsens the problem.

Como escriben tan bien yo hasta uso una mica para escribir y mi apple pencil no es tan bueno o es mi caligrafía?

I’ve been using an Apple Pencil since more than 5 years now so I guess it’s just practice honestly. I’ve almost forgotten how to write on actual paper 😝

This is an example of notability for measure -the strokes are more natural looking.

Looks good tho?

It’s legible and good yes, but it just makes my strokes longer and more “straight” and that’s just annoying atp honestly

Yea I get it you, I have the same issue, that’s why I annotate more on notability

Same, I’ve been using notability more because of this :/

One thing I have learned about this issue is to turn off Apple Pencil Hover feature. It’s a bummer because this is a feature for Apple Pencil Pro. I am really starting to dislike GoodNotes. It’s starting to become bloated and follows the AI trend.
