For Android users, you might want to test the Futo keyboard. Its nice to set up and use, and is very privacy focused. Good keyboards are hard to find in Android (imo), and Im very keen to dump Swiftkey asap. You can download Futo from Fdroid too.
Update: after some comments recommending Heliboard, I'm also recommending that, I've just tested it. Really good.

@bodhipaksa oh, I was going to look and see if Swiftkey was still available! That's what I used to use years ago (on Android). I had assumed Google bought them when they added swiping, but now I see... I guess Microsoft bought them?
It is in the app store but ugh, it seems to now be loaded up with AI crap?
#TIL that if I can't enter a vowel with a macron (like ū) in SwiftKey using a long press on a key, one way to work around that is to add Māori as a language, since it uses them, and voila, it's an option now!
Just having Japanese enabled wasn't enough, even though romaji uses them to make long vowels
Wieso ist die #MicroSoft #Swiftkey #Tastatur jetzt auf einmal die MicroSoft Swiftkey #KI Tastatur?
Don’t install One UI 7 before switching away from SwiftKey!
If you’re using SwiftKey and you’re going to install One UI 7 on your phone as soon as it rolls out to your country, then… STOP!
Why? Because once you install One UI 7 while using the SwiftKey keyboard, and you’ve set your phone to lock with a password, you will never be able to get back to your phone again. That’s due to the keyboard not showing the Enter button because it’s hidden under the navigation bar. The blank areas in the navigation bar are untouchable, so this means that your phone will be rendered useless unless you either factory reset your device or try to perform a workaround.
Microsoft has fixed the problem and released the new version of SwiftKey. This has affected all Galaxy S25 phones and any other phones that run One UI 7. Consider updating SwiftKey and switching to Samsung Keyboard before you initiate the update. After the update, switch back to SwiftKey after unlocking your phone.

Avoid locking yourself out of your phone before installing One UI 7 if you're using SwiftKey!

Was mich an dieser amerikanisch entwickelten Rechtschreibprüfung extrem aufregt:
Sie hat keine Ahnung von Klein- und Großschreibung, von Getrennt- und Zusammenschreibung und von Kompositwörtern im Deutschen.
Wenn ich meine alten Posts durchgehe, finde ich immer wieder nachträglich Fehler, die die Korrektur durchgeführt hat, obwohl ich weiß, dass man das Wort anders schreibt und ich es sicher nicht falsch geschrieben habe. #rechtschreibung #microsoft #swiftkey
Es nervt mich einfach!
I really hung on to SwiftKey longer than I should have after Microsoft acquired it. It's just... It was such a good keyboard when I first installed it. Swipe typing, nice themes, seemingly perfect key layout (from my extremely subjective point of view), and a whole bunch of config options. It was great.
Too bad it's now infested with AI bullshit like everything else Microsoft produces, and yet somehow the word suggestions (the only feature that it would make sense to integrate with any form of AI) have gotten noticeably worse.
Switched to Heliboard for now as it seems like the best FOSS alternative that's still maintained, but it'll still take some time to get used to it since the layout is messing with my muscle memory and there's basically no way to make it look like the Swiftkey theme I had.
After a couple of months of working okay, #Swiftkey crapped its pants again, being flaky or not showing at all, only showing up after reboot. Now it refused to sync since last December and after uninstall/reinstall, it completely forgot all my settings and dictionaries, even when I was fully signed in and synced.
WTF Microsoft
@Arnault von #SwiftKey gibt's ne plattdeutsche Tastatur incl. Autokorrektur die ganz gut läuft ... :) #plattdeutsch #plattdüütsch
The privacy feature I like best in #GrapheneOS is the ability to turn off the network access for a particular app. It's a mandatory permission in #Android, and simply taking it away would break a lot of apps. So instead, GrapheneOS just tells the app that the permission is granted, but the network isn't available.
I'm used to #SwiftKey, but it makes me uncomfortable that the keyboard knows everything I type and has functions that call home. You can turn them off, but you never know. In GrapheneOS, you let it download dictionaries and kill the network access, then you know for sure.
Dear SwiftKey.
You and I have been together every day for about fifteen years now.
But sometimes I feel like you don't know me at all.
Years ago, I started using a cool keyboard app instead of OEM. It was really clever, learning from my common phrases and mistakes, & predictions were sensible.
Then Microsoft bought it & it enshittified to the extent that typos render predictions useless. I just typed inagine. I often hit n, not m. Was imagine offered as an option? Ahahaha. No. "In again" was, though... and "in ageing". Hi-contrast theme works...sometimes...
So... Any good Android learning #keyboard that isn't #SwiftKey?
Ho provato alternative #opensource alla tastiera #SwiftKey per #Android, ma non riesco a trovarmici bene. Con la tastiera #Microsoft sono molto più veloce a scrivere ed accurato, sia in italiano, ma soprattutto in inglese.
Switched to iOS. I find it ironic that Microsoft makes the best keyboard for iPhones.
I don't think people realise just how shit their phone keyboards are. For years I was using #MinuumKeyboard and it was a great experience. I didn't have to type precisely because the algorithm would use press position and the previous word to guess what I was trying to type.
Now I'm using #GBoard and it's stupid as hell. There's nothing smart about it. No #MachineLearning nothing. I know there's zealots that hate the idea of #AI and by extension #ML. But bear in mind, all #Minuum machine learning was done on-device.
Typing is so laborious now. It's slow and painful and I'm constantly forced to do what should be the job of the processor.
Honestly, keyboards were supposed to be the next frontier is tech warring but unfortunately the big bastards shut everyone else. I still lament the fact that #Mozilla didn't even have the balls or foresight to give it a go. Imagine a well supported #OpenSource #keyboard that could sync your dictionary to your other devices via your own #selfhosted server. Instead #Google gave us GBoard which doesn't even try and #Microsoft have #SwiftKey which stopped trying when they bought it. Both are super happy to farm their users for #LLM data though.
It's a damn shame.
