EDIT: Thanks, guys! I ended up downloading Heliboard from f-droid :)

    I’ve been using FUTO Keyboard and I’m very happy with it so far. EDIT: It’s not FOSS but the source code is available and you are allowed to copy/modify it, just not to make money from it. That’s good enough for me.

        it is, except that it places some restrictions on forking the code: changing the donation links and keeping the branding.

        So at worst it’s source available.

      I love it, but it has some fairly big annoying things about it and I’m disappointed to see how little movement there is to fix them in GitHub. The dev seems very insactive.

          @freijon feel free to learn what “open source” means. Look, considering the number and frequency of posts in this community talking about this issue, you don’t get the benefit of the doubt anymore. People arguing that futo is open source are just spammers. Look around.

            No need to be unfriendly. I modified my original comment to make sure everyone understands what they get when they install this keyboard.

              Thanks for editing, but I deleted your comment anyway because it was still just recommending something that is not open source.

              fyi there is a thread here discussing the moderation of this thread.

                Well, this is just stupid. I was trying to share my experience about a cool piece of software I’ve found in the hopes that someone finds it useful. But instead of a friendly discussion, I’m just met with hostility. Unsubscribing.
