Openboard with swipe.
If it's working for you then great, but that hasn't been updated in over 2 years. For something that all my input is filtered through I'd like something better maintained.
It's not connected to the internet and doesn't send or receive any telemetry at all. It's API is very minimal as well. I fear Gboard to compromise me far more than this app. Keyboards don't need internet connection.
I generally agree, but its difficult to say what kind of vulnerabilities may lie in wait due to outdated dependencies. Heliboard seems to be the successor, also does not have network access, and is more regularly updated. Whatever satisfies your threat model though.
Just tried Heliboard, its glide typing support is experimental and requires hacking GApps to extract libraries or download someone's else glide library from the internet. I guess my threat model remains for the time being.
