Yup, it’s not FOSS but FUTO did some semi-shady definition shuffling so it would sound like it was, in the past.
That, combined with some other recent drama about more shady behaviour, mean I’ll probably generally avoid things coming out of them.
For truly FOSS android keyboards afaik there is Florisboard, Heliboard, AnysoftKey, Fossify Keyboard or Unexpected keyboard, as well as a couple more experimental options.
Dammit. Thanks for that. The description made it look like Foss and I fell for it. I've only just got my futo trained, but I'll look at the others you recommended. I got the beta fossify before futo as I like the rest of the suite, but it didn't even have a dictionary?
Only two of the ones you recommended show up in the play store for me. Anysoft got really bad reviews. I tried Unexpected, but it lives up to its name. I didn't expect to need a read a manual to learn how it works. I've made sure futo doesn't have internet access and it hasn't sent any data according to android. I'm a Dvorak girl (even though it does make hilarious typos more likely on touchscreen) and its hard to find a good keyboard that works well with Dvorak.
Once fossify's one comes out of beta, I'll give it another go.
