I've been using FUTO Keyboard and I'm very happy with it so far. EDIT: It's not FOSS but the source code is available and you are allowed to copy/modify it, just not to make money from it. That's good enough for me.
I love it, but it has some fairly big annoying things about it and I'm disappointed to see how little movement there is to fix them in GitHub. The dev seems very insactive.
Damn it's not FOSS? Time to jump ship
@freijon the question was specifically about open-source. Is this your first day here?
Anyone, including people who have never been here should be welcomed
@GravitySpoiled Except people who violate the first rule of this community?
Feel free to inspect the source code here: https://github.com/futo-org/android-keyboard
@freijon feel free to learn what "open source" means. Look, considering the number and frequency of posts in this community talking about this issue, you don't get the benefit of the doubt anymore. People arguing that futo is open source are just spammers. Look around.
No need to be unfriendly. I modified my original comment to make sure everyone understands what they get when they install this keyboard.
