F-Droid, Keyboard Libraries, and Choosing a Browser
After reading a lengthy GitHub discussion at the Openboard repo that went into the logistical options and challenges I decided to go with the less-than-ideal option of using Helium314's Openboard fork with the proprietary Google swipe library (libjni_latinimegoogle.so) imported. I've been using it for a few weeks now and though it feels slightly different than the Gboard I'm used to, the difference has been negligible and I'll be sticking with this setup for the foreseeable future.

Strangeness when composing SMSs.

Im building my Foss list.
You can give OpenBoard a try till florisboard is a complete app... And also... My case is also same in terms of boost... So imho the best thing you can do is used a cleaned apk of boost (basically a cleaned version of the app with all ads, trackers and analytics disabled)

F-Droid: Android FOSS app store
F-Droid is one of the first apps I install when restoring my phone. That said, I usually use F-Droid to install an alternate frontend. There's Neo Store[0] which is a fork of Droid-ify[1] which itself is a fork of Foxy Droid[2]. Personally I use Neo Store, includes more repos by default and can auto update apps.

the best browser
Hi, I use Neostore to manage my Foss apps... including setting the repos to various foss projects (Izzydroid.. ) , Mull is part of it. Maybe accessible from F-Droid too but Neostore is way better
