    Which one is closest to SwiftKey? I got too used to its placement of symbols/special characters, its arrow keys, its always present number row, and it’s left-handed friendly numpad. Been using it for almost 15 years now so it’s going to be hard to switch to a keyboard that doesn’t have an identical layout. I need to do it, though. Its autocorrect went to shit after Microsoft purchased it and I’ve been wanting to switch for years.

      I found switftkey rather buggy, and stopped using it as soon as GBoard added decent multilingual support, so I really can’t remember the key placement. All are pretty heavily customizable, I’d be very surprised if you couldn’t get them to a state where you’re comfortable.
