Finally dumped SwiftKey after being served with an ad for OneDrive inside the fucking keyboard itself. I’m still pissed they sold-out to Microsoft. (Been using it since long before that acquisition)
Now I need something to replace it, but I’ve not explored other options much.
I use FlorisBoard
well, GBoard is definitely the best,
but I use heliboard because it’s open source.
FUTO Keyboard is what I’ve been using for a while. It’s no where near as good as Gboard, but it also isn’t stealing literally everything I type.
So if you are a ride or die swipe user, the only real alternative is heliboard with the google library? I vaguely recall someone saying you could use microsoft keyboard but then use a firewall to block it from phoning home?
AnySoftKeyboard has swipe support able to be turned on, it is full FOSS.
Has 50-60 languages supported.
HeliBoard free and open source
Oh no, no swiping?
AnySoftKeyboard for FOSS swiping.
Heliboard

used to use anysoft keyboard, but development seems to have died a while ago. so I got on the heliboard train like many others. preferred anysoft because of flexibility, but heliboard is open and works well enough.
