Do you guys have any android keyboard recommendations? Using Gboard rn, would choose to not use MS keyboard. Bonus points for multiple language support.

I use OpenBoard, its based on GBoard I believe but without the Google dependencies and is open-source. Works pretty well, no complaints

Seconding this one. I used to use Swiftkey but moved to this because it doesn't have suggestions for words.

Thanks for the rec! I finally found one that works really well with larger fingers

This isn't on the Play Store?

[–] Monologue@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

looks like the play store link on their github page doesn't lead anywhere but they are on f-droid as well link

The old repository seems stale, but there's a new forked version that is actively being developed.
