FUTO Keyboard: The Discussion Behind A Cool Product (tedium.co)

A pretty interesting take, and an interesting discussion about what it means to be open source. Is there room for a trusted space between open source and closed corporate software?

My primary method of typing on mobile is swipe typing:

FUTO ~~dies~~ does a ~~fervent~~ decent job at it, but it ~~sum~~ still has a way ~~FYI~~ to go ~~fit~~ for me to make a full switch IMO.

I am quite impressed by the voice to text method though. But I do wish it would show what is being transcribed in real time. Overall, I'm impressed with what the team is doing. I can't wait to see the next iterations of this, but for now, I think I'm going to have to stick with G board. Additionally, the GIF picker is super convenient on G-board.

I like how you showed the incorrect words it was using while using the swipe typing. I had the same experience and, unfortunately, until it ~~improved~~ improves I'll have to stick with what works... Gboard.
