If you're using an android phone you need this:

I have been on the lookout for a sensible Gboard replacement that wasn't making my (voice) typing experience painful, and so far only FUTO Keyboard managed to provide that.

It has really good offline voice typing as well, which is something I use a lot.

I can not recommend this enough!

Quite a fan of #FlorisBoard myself. It's on #Fdroid. It's #FOSS, and it has #swype style gesture typing (a must for me).

Even after more than four years of using #GrapheneOS a new user article can surprise me with apps I missed.

I had the original #Swype keyboard on my #Pixel4, but my new #PixelFold would not let me install it. I didnt like any of the alternatives i tried, and reluctantly used GBoard, but, even though Jordan Spencer didn't like it, I discovered i did like the #AnySoftKeyboard. So thanks for the reference.
