  • F-Droid, Keyboard Libraries, and Choosing a Browser

    I didn't last long with the stock keyboard before installing AnySoftKeyboard which is one of the few FOSS alternative with support for swipe typing. The experience was... OK. It felt slow and it's accuracy left a lot to be desired. I still had to be slow and pretty accurate, so it didn't really feel like much of a change from the stock experience. FlorisBoard have also introduced their own implementation but the feedback I read suggested it would be much the same as my experience with AnySoftKeyboard's gesture typing.
  • Android text expander with espanso config support

    This sounds interesting. I think AnySoftKeyboard has some kind of shortcuts, similar to a textexpander, so you could check it out (it's also open source).
  • Google keyboard alternative?

  • Keyboard for Android
    2 projects | /r/foss | 11 Apr 2023
    I tested two: AnySoftKeyboard, it's stable and works even on very old devices, but it lacks modern features and the settings are really ugly and confusing (but once you look at all of them, you'll be able to make the keyboard the way you like it, is very customizable). And I also tested FlorisBoard, it's modern, beautiful, but it's a work in progress currently in early-beta stage and it has many incomplete or buggy features. So I ended up with AnySoftKeyboard. I know there are others, but it was these two projects that caught my attention the most.

    AnySoftKeyboard is another good FOSS option and does have (beta) swipe typing.

  • How Nice Effects Affected My Life

    That’s how I got into developing Effected Keyboard. I wanted to impress people, so I thought why won’t I add flying letters to a keyboard that fly out of the keyboard into the screen. Isn’t it magical? Then I thought of making something nice, keyboard that works and will be used by all. I took Menny’s AnySoftKeyboard (which is open sourced Apache 2 License) and reprogrammed it into a new product. Effected Keyboard 2 has some features I very like. I don’t know how you’ll perceive them, but I honestly feel they’re nice.
