Didn't swiftpad or whatever its called send every key pressed to Microsoft?

Not a China shill. China is horrible. Microsoft less so as they don't commit genocide in slow motion. But still, I think this sort of thing is more common than we think.

Use FOSS.

What are the best FOSS options for Android keyboard apps? I've been struggling with this lately.

F-Droid says the app hasn't been updated in the last 14 months. Is the project still worked on? It says beta on the website.

Yes.. The pitfalls of FOSS is that some dude is working on it when they have free time. I've been using it for 2 years and can't say I mind.. would like to have the word suggestions, though.
