The obvious privacy hole of Android keyboard apps is what pushed me back to the desktop for a bunch of tasks I had been doing on mobile.
AnySoft works, congrats to them for giving us a FOSS option. But SwiftKey and company are just so much better when you're attempting the awful task of writing a whole paragraph of text with your thumbs. So my solution has been to stop attempting this task.
I've found this fork of OpenBoard quite useful. It enables glide/swipe typing which works perfectly imo and has great word predictions and autocorrect as well. Do try it out and see if it changes anything for you.
Thanks. FYI others are suggesting it elsewhere today. Popular theme this week.
Yeah it's not on F-Droid so word of mouth it is!
