  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.

      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.
