FOSS keyboard: Simple Keyboard by RKKR, swipe typing and AOSP looks.

Simply keyboard and nothing more

Anyone tried this? Works perfectly for me. Any reason why I should go back to the OpenBoard fork with Swipe?

Not only does it not have swipe typing, it doesn't have suggestions either.

There's only swipe delete and cursor movement.
Does it actually have swipe typing? I just downloaded to check and it doesn't seem like it does.
- There's a fork of Openboard that has swipe to text.

  that's actually really good - thanks!
  
  Jeez, I tried it before and just tried again now and I can not find the swipe to text option. I think I'm either blind or stupid. I hope I'm not both
- Google Play page says it doesn't and probably never will.
I'll try it again when it has suggestions.
No spellcheck, no swipe but works for me. Been using this for a long time.. Minimal app at best
- Wait, it does hace swipe. I'm using it.
  
  oh I meant swipe to type, by the way I like the swipe to delete option, it's so convenient.
I have been using Simple Keyboard for more than a year now and I'm a big fan of it, no annoying auto corrections or spooky telemetry, and the swipe to move the cursor or delete it's really amazing.
Any keyboard with a clipboard manager? Eg last 10 items copied.
- Florisboard
Wish someone would make one with those two finger swipes feature.
- Thumb-key?
  
  The one I'm talking about used to let you complete a word using swipes from two finger simultaneously.
  
  Think it was called nintype or keyboard 69.
