I use OpenBoard (it's available on fDroid. Maybe the play store too).
I don't know if it's the best but I like it. If you type in multiple languages you do need to hit a "language switcher" key on the keyboard to switch to the autocorrect for that language. A very minor complaint. Otherwise it's great.
And it will learn swear words. No more ducking ducks.
OpenBoard - every other keyboard app is ducking shirt
I only dislike it for German. My other languages are Spanish and English, which have the same layout minus one extra key not even used in English. But in German Z and Y change places, so that always trips me up.
Having to remember to switch to the different language when writing a bilingual email is also annoying and does happen somewhat more often than you'd imagine.
