A lot of Gboard beta users are suddenly remembering they joined the beta.

You're viewing a single thread.
Don't use gboard, rather download a keyboard from F-Droid and avoid the keylogging :-)
21 0 ReplyWhich one do you use? I haven't found one that works as well as the Google one yet
3 0 ReplyFUTO keyboard, Seriously, it's way better than every other option I've looked into. Has material you design support.
Also a lot of cool in development features like on-device text correction and speech to text with local LLM processing.
4 0 ReplyFuto is great unless you constantly switch between several languages. 🥲
2 0 Replyidk 2 klicks to switch a language works well enough for me with futo.

Simple keyboard. I went minimalistic
2 0 ReplyI've been using FUTO which is free and open source, has pretty good gesture typing, very good voice to text, and does not connect to the internet. I'm happy with it, but I'm also an idiot and most things make me happy.
Edit: I am wrong about freedom and open source. Don't listen to me. I still like the keyboard though.
4 2 ReplyFUTO which is free and open source
It is neither free (as in freedom), nor open source.
It is source-available.

For the love of Christ how do I change the FUTO dictionary to recognize curse words?? It's so unnecessarily puritan
1 0 ReplyJust open the main settings and there's a category called personal dictionary.
1 0 ReplyI've had a bunch of curse words in there for months but they refuse to show up in swiping or predictive text
