Been using a degoogled LineageOS phone with all apps being exclusively FLOSS. My favourite free alternatives to proprietary apps and services must be Lemmy (Jerboa) for Reddit, ArcaneChat and Matrix (Extera) for Telegram, Fluxer for Discord.

Which ones are your favourite?

i liked thumb key a lot and switched to flickboard so that i could type one- and two-handed with the same keyboard for each thumb. you can even choose the thumb-key layout, and give it a custom background

Interesting. But from reading the description I don't see any advantages over Thumb Key because the latter also has two-handed layouts that can be seen in screenshots of Flickerboard. What do you find better in Flickerbourd that in Thumb Key?

The two-handed typing you're referring to, that's 2x thumb layouts right? Not QWERTY.

Got it. Makes sense. I've used Thumb Key with 2x thumb layout so I got a bit confused. Tried flickboard, seems nice, very similar to TK indeed.
