I’ve been using SwiftKey for waaaaaaay too long. I shoulda switched when Microsoft bought them out.
But old habits die hard. And I love the skin I use.
Help they know everything I’ve typed on a phone. That can’t be good for anyone.
Edit: Holy fuck everyone, thanks for all of the responses!
I went with Heliboard, and typing this, it looks like I have to change a couple more settings to get it like I had Swiftkey, but I already like it more.
The fact you can basically make your own skin by changing all of the colors of the keyboard is amazing.
Fuck microsoft’s ai keyboard.
Heliboard for lyfe!
Edit edit: trying to delete my data from Swiftkey was INSANELY hard. I couldn’t do it from my phone, so I had to login with a computer. They think they are slick… Fuckers…
You are posting in a privacy community confessing that you were long hooked on some keyboard for their shiny look and what not :-) What do you really want from a keyboard app besides privacy ?
Funky characters ? https://f-droid.org/en/packages/mf.asciitext.lite/
As simple as possible ? https://f-droid.org/en/packages/rkr.simplekeyboard.inputmethod/
Probably there is more privacy friendly ones in this long list : https://search.f-droid.org/?q=keyboard&lang=en
Have fun!
Swyping, the core functionality? And maybe one-finger mode?
