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.

    Even more frustrating was how every keyboard describes themselves as “multilingual” but they just mean you can switch between different languages, not that you can use multiple at once.

      Yeah it’s a totally different thing. I guess people who make the keyboards only really speak one language. It’s taken so much time to find a keyboard that actually does it. Gboard does it and I think Swiftkey used to as well, but those are not open source obviously.

      I still have a bit of configuring to do for Heliboard, but I think I can get it to work for me
