The only app I can't live without. Except for gboard, all of my applications are Foss. There is no competition for gboard's swipe typing, not to mention its many capabilities like as searching for gifs, stickers, being able to paste copied images, translating, and so on. I'd like to know how I can use gboard while maintaining my privacy. According to what I've heard, it sends all typing data to Google's server. If you ask me, that's a massive no-no. Do you have any suggestions?

FOSS is not just about privacy! Freedom is that important reason you should care about. FlorisBoard is my suggestion for you.

    Used FlorisBoard for a good while, it's the perfect replacement imo. I don't remember exactly but there was a certain feature missing for me so I uninstalled it but it may have been implemented by now.

    I checked every keyboard on F-Droid, Floris is the best keyboard you can find now.
