  SwiftKey?

    Not OP, but consider using FUTO Keyboard. It’s made by the group Louis Rossmann works with, and it has offline speech to text (no sending data to Google), swipe keyboard, and completions. It’s also source-available, which isn’t as good as open source, but you could examine the code and verify their claims if you wanted to.

    I’m using it and, while it’s not perfect, it’s way better than the open source Android keyboards with swiping that I’ve tried.

      Thanks, will try it out! I need an emoji picker though. Does it have that?

        Yeah, it’s very much alpha software, but it works surprisingly well for being in such an early state. I’m using it as my keyboard now, and it works well enough, but certainly not perfect.

        Then again, I’m willing to deal with a lot of nonsense to avoid Google, so YMMV.

        I hear the speech to text is pretty good. I haven’t tried it (I hate dictation), but maybe you could give it a whirl before you give up on it, it’s supposed to be its killer feature.
