Title.
I’m not sure I’m ready to go all “lineageOS full degoogle” on my phone because some rather necessary day-to-day apps for me will freak out if I have root, let alone a modified OS. Buuuut GBoard has gotten right in my tit, and now they’re offering nightmarish AI generated emoji and I’m like “NO”. So.
I don’t really care about predictive text or swipe-typing or any of that stuff, I mostly just type normally.
The only nice-to-haves that might entice me would be support for one-handed mode and a configurable keyboard layout.
Yes, HeliBoard is an excellent, open source keyboard app.
Another vote for HeliBoard, I’ve been using it for months and it’s great and under active development.
I’ve struggled with keyboards. Some to try out are OpenBoard, Heliboard, and Florisboard. All are on F-Droid.
But my favourite so far is FUTO Keyboard. Not without issues but I like it the best. It’s not on F-Droid but you can use Obtanium to keep it up to date from the GitHub releases.
If you like weird shit, check out Thumb-key. It’s on F-Droid and made by one of the Lemmy developers.
I’ve been using Florisboard and I like it well enough :>
Heliboard is my main. But I’ve been trying Futo Keyboard and its also very nice.
