I will hypocritically say that I use Gboard. I love Emoji Kitchen.
The day it comes to FUTO keyboard I'm outta this spyware.
I used Swiftkey until I noticed that Microsoft is adding weird shit to it and so I deleted it and now I just use the built-in Samsung keyboard because none of the others will be any better.

Swift key with auto correct cranked to 11. Haven't found any other keyboard yet that lets me smash any nearby keys and have it fix it just fine.
Gboard. I want handwriting for Chinese and afaik no foss keyboard has that.
I use Fleksy, probably not as popular because it doesn't have swype typing but I find the autocorrect works really well, and it's easy to change the word if you don't like what it corrected to by swiping up or down to different options, and you can swipe left to delete words. Built in gif support too, and there's an extension to make the number row always show.
Nice! That sounds pretty great (I don't use swipe typing at all so no loss there). When you delete a word from correction, is it only deleting it in that exact situation (our to out), or is it deleting out from the dictionary entirely? Hoping it's the former and that might be exactly what I'm looking for if so.
Sorry, to clarify, swiping left is like backspace a word, if I swiped after now it'd delete "now", then "after" if I did it again. If you typed our and it changed to out, you could swipe up and it'd revert back to our.
You can add or remove words from the dictionary by opening the app separately too, but most settings are accessed from the keyboard.
Gboard but with network permissions turned off. Works great. Haven't had any issues with an autosuggest and swiping. I don't use autocorrect.
I'm surprised to hear that it doesn't get angry at you!
