    Goddammit, now I have to find another keyboard for my phone. Any recommendations for one that isn’t supported by fascists?

      I use Unexpected Keyboard.

      It’s mainly made for programming or using Termux, and it makes some special characters more accessible than the classic keyboards. It also has a mechanic for typing special characters that makes it faster to type. And you can enable a compose key, which is something I love to see on a phone keyboard.

      Unexpected doesn’t have voice recognition though, but it can be enabled by installing a voice recognition app alongside the keyboard.

        Thanks for posting this! I’ve been looking to switch away from Swiftkey since MS bought it, and I love the easily accessible symbols on this (I do a bit of terminalling on mobile).

        I don’t use the voice type thing anyhow. i get its usefulness, but I often don’t like being perceived and speaking my texts aloud makes that difficult. looks like it does lots of other cool stuff though. does it do swipe to text? I like that a lot.

      i’ve switched to HeliBoard on my tablet!

      i wouldn’t call it a drop-in replacement (i don’t think it has swipe-to-type or voice recognition for example, tho i could be wrong) but for me it works even better

        It does have swipe, but you need to download an extra thing iirc.

  FUTO is seemingly lead by an entirely unrelated toxic individual. But as for 37signals:

  The open source web application framework Ruby on Rails was initially created by David Heinemeier Hansson for internal use at 37signals, before being publicly released in 2004.

    for further context on DHH, CEO and founder of 37signals: he also made omarchy, the infamous dodgy-personal-arch-config-turned-linux-distro, is in large part the reason why framework is in so much hot water right now, and the reason he’s bad (and why we’re mad at framework for collaborating with him) is he’s an open white supremacist

      framework is in so much hot water right now

      Most people don’t care.
      And honestly, I understand Framework’s position. They collaborate wath about a dozen other distros.
