Comment on Can we all agree that whatever version of predictive text we have nowadays is crap, and has been for a long time?

I sideloaded HeliBoard on Android via F-Droid and the predictive text is coming along nicely the more I type.

Hmmm, wonder why it needs side loaded? Why can they post to the Google store?

  Let me know what you think about it. I also loaded the swipe gesture pack and it is super responsive

  Posting on the google store sucks, they make you jump through hoops and will collect data. If the app is already open source, there is no good reason to put it on the google play store.
  
  Also, I don’t really understand the point of the term side loading when Android doesn’t prevent you to from adding other software sources. It feels like it carries connotations when all you are doing is adding a very well established open source software repository.
