I've been using FUTO which is free and open source, has pretty good gesture typing, very good voice to text, and does not connect to the internet. I'm happy with it, but I'm also an idiot and most things make me happy.

Edit: I am wrong about freedom and open source. Don't listen to me. I still like the keyboard though.

FUTO which is free and open source

It is neither free (as in freedom), nor open source.

It is source-available.

I stand corrected.

For the love of Christ how do I change the FUTO dictionary to recognize curse words?? It's so unnecessarily puritan

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Just open the main settings and there's a category called personal dictionary.

I've had a bunch of curse words in there for months but they refuse to show up in swiping or predictive text
