What open source keyboard alternative you suggest instead of gBoard on Android? (lemmy.ml)

I'm trying to build my own degoogled ROM for me, so what are you suggesting? For now I'm on OpenBoard.

I used to use Florisboard for a while, but the lack of autocorrect (however annoying it may be sometimes) made me switch to AnySoftKeyboard. I mostly like that I can customize away all the unnecessary emoji and single use buttons (e.g. .com button when filing in links), as the usable space on a phone screen in portrait mode is already cramped.

Happy with it so far, but mobile phone keyboards (outside of physical ones), are generally still a bit of a pain IMO.

I can agree. Lack of autocorrect is really a bummer, as I'm so used to it.
